I have a chart with the following dataset.

dataset.JPG1146×943 198 KB

when it tries to graph I receive these two errors.



so i then change my x axis to a number axis and i receive this error.

nevermind figured it out. forgot to change the properties of the chart. not in the chart customizer but in the component properties. needed to change the chart type to category chart and then the extract order to by row.
