It's probably defaulting to January 1 1900, day 1 in Excel's date system.
You are not providing valid dates for the chart to use as dates. Make sure the apparent dates in the worksheets are numerical dates, not text labels, then make sure the X values (category labels for the chart) refers to these dates. - Jon ------- Jon Peltier, Microsoft Excel MVP Tutorials and Custom Solutions Peltier Technical Services, Inc. - http://PeltierTech.com _______ "scoz" wrote in message ...
