I have the below data, where column 1 is a date, column 2 is a location # of computers, and Column 3 is a location.
The order of the columns doesn't matter.
I would like to chart the location and number of computers at that location over time, showing a shift from one location to another location.
I really don't need all the locations, just the top 5 each day, but including all the data.
No matter what I do I can't get the date on the X-Axis. I think a Scatter chart, perhaps with lines is appropriate, but that is a guess.

Excel Facts

Can you sort left to right?
To sort left-to-right, use the Sort dialog box. Click Options. Choose "Sort left to right"
I was able to put this on a line graph for you. But I do not know what you mean by Top 5, because if you do that by day then you will be dropping/adding data points and breaking and inserting random lines.

You also have some very BIG numbers that really scrunch down your axis for numbers, I tried to put the big numbers on a secondary axis but then you can't tell which axis goes with which line.

Here it is with one axis: (the data source minisheet is below the chart)
