Ignition 7.6.0 (b1875) Have a historical easy chart with tags stored at minute intervals and start-end interval is exactly one day. Chart renders fine, however when saved to xls the data looks like this 2013-7-2 0:00 4 714 2013-7-2 0:00 4 715 2013-7-2 0:00 5 714 2013-7-2 0:00 0 0 2013-7-2 0:00 5 715 2013-7-2 0:00 5 714 2013-7-2 0:00 5 713 2013-7-2 0:00 5 714 2013-7-2 0:00 4 713 Everything looks right (data count) however time is missing all HH:MM:SS data. Other posts indicate it could be data format in xls but this is not the case. Have not been able to work out the cause. ---

I would have to see how you configured your easy chart. It might be best to call in for this. ---

You can ignore this - I’m using Openoffice and it is the usual lack of XML standard that is causing this on import. As a workaround I have a template button which automatically reads the chart pens and exports to CSV.
