I have a date table with a MIndex field as outlined below. I want to be able to plot a line graph that goes from June 2022 to todate based on month.
How do I stop all the May , June , July etc for 2022 and 2033 being clumped together . I sort by MIndex but the MIndex goes back to 1 for January. Is there a way this can be continuous?

@spandy34 , Create sort column and mark that as the sort column
month year sort = year([Date])*100 + month([Date])
Click on month year and the in the "column tools" uses sort by column and mark month year sort as a sort column
