Default Axis points

I am trying to create a chart for one months data using the dates along the
horisontal axis - as soon as i get to 20 dates i cannot increase the axis. Is
there any way to do this? cant find anything in the set ups that says you are
restricted to 20 points

Click on the chart area
You should see coloured lines ("range finders") around the data being used
for the plot
Drag these down to include all your data
OR
Just remake the chart

Put your data into a contiguous columnar range, then select the range, not
the individual cells.
