I have plotted a chart with dates in x-axis. These dates are formatted as `d-mmm-yy´ in the source table. But, x-axis labels in the chart has the following problems. Can the experts in this forum help please?

1. Day & month appear correctly, but year is displayed as yy only. For example, 18-jul-yy.
2. Weekends are not there in the table, but chart has weekend dates also. Not sure where is it picking from. For example, 28-jul-yy
3. Table has the dates in English format, but same dates are appearing in the chart in
Spanish. For example, 15-ago-yy

Excel Facts

Square and cube roots
The =SQRT(25) is a square root. For a cube root, use =125^(1/3). For a fourth root, use =625^(1/4).
Issue 1 & 3 are fixed after I restarted my laptop :love: But still 2nd issue is there. Can the experts in this forum help please?

2. Weekends are not there in the table, but chart has weekend dates also. Not sure where is it picking from. For example, 28-jul-yy
