VBA Chart - X Axis To Appear As Dates?

Jun 5, 2012

I have a simple piece of code that creates a chart using the the values in column A as the x-axis and the values in column E as the y-axis. The values in Column A are all dates in this format: mm.dd.yyyy. However, when I collect the x-values they always appear as numbers (1,2,3). Even if I format the axis to Dates, they appear as 1.00.1900, 1.02.1901, etc.

Here is the code (also, I would like a VBA solution but if this is with excel's chart tools, so be it).

Code:

Sub Macro2()
ActiveSheet.Shapes.addChart.Select
ActiveChart.ChartType = xlXYScatter
ActiveChart.SeriesCollection.NewSeries
ActiveChart.SeriesCollection(1).Name = "=""Rate of Productivity"""
ActiveChart.SeriesCollection(1).XValues = "='Sheet1'!$A$2:$A$4"
ActiveChart.SeriesCollection(1).Values = "='Sheet1'!$E$2:$E$4"
End Sub

Chart Dates On Horizontal Axis

Oct 31, 2012

I am trying to create a chart with dates from the past 6 weeks (one week at a time). The horizontal axis shows the dates from my data page correctly until I make one of the other data fields a secondary axis and then my dates change from the actual dates on the data page to 1-Jan-00, 2-Jan-00, through 6-Jan-00.

When I do the select data and look at the dats in the Horizontal Axis labels box, it shows the real dates. Why won't they show up on the chart as actual dates?

X Axis Dates Not Appearing Correctly In Combined Chart

Jun 2, 2014

I got a problem with displaying my dates correctly on the X-axis of my combined column - line graph. For some reason X-axis labels appear as consecutive numbers with regards to number of data points. Please see attached.

Also, why does the indent change as seen in this screenshot?

Last but not least, how can I prevent my secondary axis label from coinciding with the labels as seen here?

Format Chart Plot Series/Axis

Jan 16, 2007

im having problem formatting my graph.

chart type = line.

I have 1 series of data, which is N values vs. Time.

Time however, is specified by specific dates. The graph is not putting a plot point accorrding to the date corresponding to the N value.

Example values:

date:____1/1/05 _______ 5/7/05 _____ 8/13/05
n value: __55 ___________ 22 _________ 11

I want the chart to reflect the time between the dates and put a plot point (n value) under each date listed and connect with a line.

Pivot Chart : No Control Of The Axis Format

Sep 21, 2006

I made a pivot chart. On the X axis are days of the year. I would like the axis to give the months rather than the days, because it is easier to read. But when I select the chart's axis, I don't have acces to any "number" sheet in the "Axis format" section. I could just change the scale.

ActiveChart.Axes(xlCategory).Select
With Selection.TickLabels
.Alignment = xlCenter
. Offset = 100
.ReadingOrder = xlContext
.Orientation = 45
.NumberFormat = "[$-41D]mmmm;@" 'I added this line
End With
ActiveChart.HasPivotFields = False

Format Simple Graph Y Axis Of Pivot Chart?

Nov 19, 2013

I have a pivot chart which has one Axis field (Cell Ref2) and one Sum of Values field (which is a table series of percentages calculated from formulas)

I see the graph like I'd expect, but I'm struggling to get it to show percentages rather than basic integer units on the y-axis? Usually I would imagine to just right click on the y-axis : Format Axis, and expect to see something to change the display units, but it is only for hundredths thousands etc rather than a percentage ? The units themselves in the table for that value series are in percentages so I don't see why it isnt showing the percentage units in the first place.

Excel 2007 :: Dates By Month On X-Axis In Horizontal Stacked Bar Chart?

Aug 24, 2012

I am working with the Ganntt chart and horizontal bar charts but can't seem to figure out a way to force the X-Axis to behave properly.

In Excel 2007, I am trying to get the X-Axis to show major units of Months. However, in my chart options I can only change the Y-Axis to be Date/Monthly.

Changing my data layout (from the below) to be a vertical format produces the same problem, just in the other direction.

My data looks as follows:

System
Blocker
Production
Migrataion
Retired

Sys1
1/1/2012
780

Sys2
1/1/2012
400
60
90

Sys3
2/1/2013
30
5
1

The Blocker column is formatted as "No Fill" in order to cover a portion of the time-scale.

My X-Axis displays as random dates throughout the period and all of my data displays properly in terms of the scale on the grid.

What is NOT working is that the dates shown on the X-Axis really need to be based on a Monthly scale instead of the randomly selected dates Excel is using.

20120823.xlsx

I can't seem to find the right combination of options to make that happen or force a scale on the X-Axis.

Second Category Axis & Value Axis To Current Chart

Sep 27, 2006

how to incorporate another category and value axis to my existing chart.

1. I need to add a rank axis derived from my data column (C6-C15). This column should rank from highest to lowest and create a tie if any number is repeated. I have arranged the rank column in cells B38:L38 as they would appear. I would like this to appear on the top or bottom of the bar graphs.

2. Second I need to add the frequency of hits which = 3 derived from cell J1 This should appear on the chart were it is currently titled. This should create another bar graph colored green and labeled 3.

3. Lastly the numbers axis can remain the same as it appears on the chart or if it would be better to align as shown in cells B43:L43.

Show Missing Values In Pivot Chart (line Chart) Axis?

Apr 18, 2013

How can I add missing values to the axis in a pivot chart line chart? I have a numerical X-axis with values such as 0,1,5,8,14, etc. I have another set of Y values that correspond to the X values. If this was an XY-scatter plot I'd be able to plot X vs. Y and connect the dots for "gaps" in the X values. Since it's a pivot chart I cannot use an XY-scatter plot, I can only use a line chart. The line chart doesn't give me the ability to add the "missing" values, so it gives the impression that my data is more closely packed than it is. The data source is external to my spreadsheet, so I cannot add the values before creating the pivot table/chart.

Chart With Two Axis

May 17, 2007

I have some simple data and i want to create a horisizontal bar chart with 2 axis (X axis) the top one showing number of stocks number up to 270 and the bottom with Market Cap up to 1,200. (See attached). I set up the chart and it looks fine but it has only one axis so in order to create a second axis i right click on the blue series (no of Stocks) and go through the motions of setting up a secondary axis. However when i do that it ends up looking like the chart to the right with the Bars Cojoined (which is not what i want) I cannot seem to achieve 2 axis with separated bars

Column Chart With Both Value X And Y-axis

Jun 30, 2006

I am trying to create a column chart/graph with "Days Past Due" on the x-axis and "Quantity" on the y-axis. In other words, data from one column needs to make up the x-axis and data from another the y-axis where the bars will rise to meet that quantity. I was wondering if this is possible. I have not been able to find a way to make it work so far. I know there is a way to do it for a line graph through XY scatter, but I need a column chart.

Please see the attached workbook.

I would like to create a bar chart which is linked to a drop down box (from data validation) that allows me to choose of the 3 sets of data to show in the x axis.

So if i choose "HALF YEAR", the bar chart will have two bars (one is "jan-jul" the other is "jul-dec") with the green section data if i choose "QUARTER YEAR", the bar chart will have four bars ("jan-mar", "apr-jun", "jul-sep", "oct-dec") with the blue section data if i choose "INDIVIDUAL MONTHS" i have twelve bars....with the red section data.

Chart Axis Date Intervals

Feb 20, 2009

I'm using Excel 2007 and I want to plot data vs dates. Furthermore I want the dates on the dates axis to increment by month not by a certain number of days. So something like this:

1-Jan-09
1-Feb-09
1-Mar-09
...

There's the Major/Minor Units on the Axis Options screen but I cannot type in a constant number since the number of days for each month is different.

Formatting Axis Of Bubble Chart

Aug 2, 2013

I created a bubble chart whose x-axis and y-axis show every 10th value between 0 and 100 (i.e. 0, 10, 20, 30...). The axes intersect at (50, 50) to create 4 quadrants.

I want to erase/hide the values on the axes (i.e. the axes will no longer show 0, 10, 20, 30... and at the same time, the bubbles will still be in the same place) to create 4 blank quadrants and make my bubble chart easier to look at.
