All,
I have seen this posted here from a long time ago, but never saw an answer. Hopefully someone will be able to help.
My spreadsheet has a date formated (MMM-YY) in column A and 3 other columns of numeric data. When I create a pivot table from this data, I have to change the format of the date area in the pivot table to MMM-YY and that stays, but when I create a chart from the pivot table with the date as the horizontal axis, the format reverts to mm/dd/yy. I have tried going through the axis properties to change this, but it will not change.
I can't change the original data to text because then it will not sort correctly (month/year ascending).
Any suggestions or is this just not doable in excel?
TIA
Mike
