I am trying to create a stack graph. I don't know how to align the data to months. Please look at the attached graph.
The blue and red should be in January and the green and purple should be in February. What am I doing wrong.

Start again.
Select the range A3:E15 > Insert > Recommended Charts > All Charts (tab) > Stacked Column (second icon along in main window) > OK.

attached is the spreadsheet. It has the two columns that I want but in the wrong month. I need one stack column in jan and the other one in feb
I am not sure what trouble you are having. The thing that confused me is that, with no labels on the axes, I assumed that both axes were the primary axis system. It took some fiddling with things before I realized that the horizontal axis is the secondary horizontal axis and the vertical axis is the primary axis, and you have deleted the primary horizontal axis and the secondary vertical axis. Once I realized what you were trying to do with the axes, I made only one change -- I selected the secondary horizontal axis -> format -> set max value to 3/1/2018 (for some reason you have fixed the max of the secondary horizontal axis to 12/1/2018). If I understand what you are asking, that one change seemed to be all that is needed to get the dates underneath the corresponding columns.
I am uncertain if this is the solution, because I am not sure why you had fixed the max of secondary horizontal axis to dec 2018 instead of march. If the problem is just confusion over what to set as the max of the horizontal axis, then that should fix the problem. If there is something else you are trying to do with the horizontal axis, then maybe I am misunderstanding what you are trying to do.
