Bar Graph error: Unable to use text data to render numerical/datetime axis

kbpeavey

My stacked bar chart renders just fine initially, but as I continue to refine the presentation, I get an error "Unable to use text data to render numerical/datetime axis". My X-axis is a string (row["RequesterOrg"]) with grouping enabled for Type=text, Interval=1, and AggExp=Count. Further, I'm doing an optional y-series grouping on another string (row["Priority"]). As I said, initally, the graph renders just fine, displaying the data exactly as I expect to see, but after making a few additional edits on the Format Graph tab, the graph rolls over dead on me. This is a repeatable event. Any ideas?

What are you plotting on the Y-axis... and you should know that each Series on the Y-axis can change the default grouping aggregration of COUNT that you are using so you should check each series for that. I created a similar example that counted a text field on the y-axis. It is available at the thread below.<br />
