how do i change the verbiage of the "category X axis"?
it's showing 1,2,3 etc, i want it to show months. i have selected the
months in the source data and not selected them.
be gentle w/me...don't understand many of the terms used in a graph.

Hi,

Select the chart and right click. Pick Source data.
On the Source data dialog go to the Series tab. At the bottom is a text box
that will allow you to select the range to use as Category labels.
