Graph with a mind of its own
 
Hello Excel(lent) users,

I have created a sheet with 4 columns.
Column A (autonumbering)
Column B (Date)
Column C (Number of incoming requests)
Column D (Number of processed requests)
Column E (D devided by C in %)

I want to make a graph showing the above (B, C, D, E). So per day it shows
how many requests we received, how many we processed and what the percentage
is. Now I am taking into account the weekend in Column B. So I have a date in
Column B, which starts with the first date of receiving. From there I add one
to the previous day, except for Monday, where I add up 3 days from the
previous day (which is Friday).

Now I have made a graph, but it shows the date of the weekends, even though,
they are not in the column B. Can someone explain me, how I can fix this??

Thanx !

To keep Excel from 'helping' here, right-click on the chart and select Chart
Options. Click on the Axes tab, select 'Category' under X-axis, then click
OK.
