Remove weekends from a stock chart
 
Hi,

I'm trying to build an excel stock chart and i don't know how to remove
weekends from it. I don'd have them in the data table...but they appear in
the chart.

Thanks

If Excel recognizes your X data as dates, it constructs a date-scale axis,
which includes a spot for every date. On the Chart menu, select Options,
click on the Axes tab, and change Category (X) axis to Category.

Basically you do the same, but they've redesigned the dialog so nobody can
find anything. I think in 2007, you have to select the X axis, press Ctrl+1
(numeral one) which is the shortcut for Format Selected Object, and find the
axis type on the first tab. The choices are Auto, Text, and Date.

Thanks Jon,
I was simply walking over that choice and not trying it. Instead of Date
format need to use as Text format and still be linked to source and results =
no gaps on chart time line. Perfect.
