Perhaps you can help me solve this issue. I created a timeline using Excel template called "Timelines with milestones (yellow)" please view below

Everything went smoothly, bounds were adjusted, data was entered and it worked intuitively. I even gave a presentation to my boss and showed him that I could adjust the timeline by simply changing a date or position.

Several days later I decide to use the same template to create a new chart. That's where the problems begin. First, I changed the bounds THEN when I followed by changing the dates, everything was all messed up. All the data shifted down the axis every time I changed a date. It was working fine a week ago, and now it's all haywire.

I even went back to the original document where I had just done a presentation a week earlier and it had worked. It was doing the same on that one as well! I restarted the computer, but same issue. What the heck? Why is this suddenly happening? Now I can't even use the template at all. It seems that it's somehow connected to changing of the bounds, is my guess. Halp =/
