Default Creating a new chart in Excel

Hello, when I create a new chart in Excel 2007, for some reason the data
series are very, very narrow. Can someone tell me what I need to do to
correct? To workaround this, I opened the spreadsheet in Excel 2003, right
clicked on the chart, chose Chart Options, clicked the Axes tab, and clicked
the Category radial button. I can't seem to find this option in Excel 2007.
Thanks

Hi,

So you category labels are dates?

Select the Axes and press CTRL+1, On the format dialog select Axis
Options. For Axis Type: select Text Axis.

Cheers
Andy
