Default Excel Charting

I am trying to chart data for each day of the week except Sunday.

I am using a stacked bar graph with volume on the y axis and the date
along the bottom.

My week runs Friday to Thursday.

My problem: In my data series I have six slots (Fri, Sat, Mon, Tue,
Wed, Thu) and these are dates. When I chart these I get a x value for
Sunday. Sunday's date is not present bit it appears.

I can only assume this is because the X Axis' scale has set itself to
days, as the A axis series are indeed dates.

How can I just chart the six days for whgich I am entering Data??????

Paul,

I think it is

objChart.Axes(xlCategory).CategoryType = xlCategoryScale

Excel seems to default to xlTimeScale or xlAutomatic for this property,
either of which will pick up that there are dates present and add
intervening dates (very annoyingly).
