Default Problem with xy scatter with dates

I am trying to create an x-y scatter chart where both the x values and the y
values are dates. I highlight the 2 adjacent columns of date data and click
on InsertScatter. Instead of a scatter graph, I get a line chart with 2
lines (the two data columns). The x values on the graph are simply a count
of the data points as in a line chart.
If the 2 columns of data are not dates, I get the correct scatter chart, but
not if the x-values are dates in which case I get a line chart. How can I
get a scatter chart with both x-values and y-values as dates?
