Dates in chronological order
- Anonymous9 years ago
Take a look at the field that you are using for the X-Axis. What data type is it? Is it type Text? If so, it would be sorting it alphabetically.
why am i getting errors for some of them while changing to date type... (dates were entered manually in excel sheets)
Hi pranim
It would appear that it is due to your Date format on your PC being different from the Date format that you entered in Excel.
You should be able to change the date format to match your PC by clicking on the drop down data type in your Query Editor and selecting Use Locale
