Hi,
My file is loaded in this order(MMM YYYY) for 2010 and 2011. How do I sort this in order? Also, when I select 2010/2011 all the months start jumping around in my graphs.
APR 2010 MAY 2010
APR 2011 MAY 2011
AUG 2010
AUG 2011
JAN 2010
JAN 2011
Thanks for the help!

Dear Samantham
its better to find use function monthname(order#(Apr 2011,'MMM YYYY')) and then sort it into Ascending or descending
by ticking on the numeric sort in sort tab
do let me know wether it worked
else u can also use
Exp num(makedate( year(order#(Apr 2011,'MMM YYYY')),Month(order#(Apr 2011,'MMM YYYY')),01))
in ur sort tab it will solve ur problem
do let me know wether it worked

Hi Samantham the problem with your output is that ...you are getting the date as String format not as the date format.
So you are getting the desired result.First get the date in no format. for example for the field
Orderdate it may be----date(orderdate,'DD/MM/YYYY') as orderdate1
then fin the
min(orderdate1)
then make a variable $MinDate using the peek function
date(monthstart($(vMinDate) + rowno() - 1), 'MMM-YYYY') AS MonthYear.
This will give you the required result.
Hope this will help you.
If any further query than give the attached copy of your application

Hi samantham,
Right Click on Chart ==> Sort tab ==> Select on Dimension ==> Check on Expression and past this Match(CAPITALIZE(LEFT(TRIM(Months),3)), $(=chr(39) & Replace(MonthNames, ';', chr(39) & ',' & chr(39)) & chr(39))) + (RIGHT(TRIM(Months),4) * 10)
See the attached file also.
Note: Months is the field in format (MMM YYYY).
HTH and let me know.
