Hi all,

I am trying to create a time series chart to visualize the past week of data; however, all of the point populate at midnight. I believe I have set the import format correctly. The table to the right is directly linked to the dataset I am using.

Any suggestions to resolve would be greatly appreciated.

Unfortunately running 8.0.1, so the timeseries chart is not available to me. The very odd thing is, other charts I have created function as intended with seemingly no difference.

Wow, I hope you are campaigning hard for an Upgrade, that's a very old version.
