The following data spans out to 2012 and when graphing out the data - R defaults dates on x axis only shows the years eg 2005 2007 2009 My question is how can I get the graph to show more dates on the axis - eg every qtr or 6 months or every month etc PRODUCT,DATE,AMOUNT_1,AMOUNT_2 A,3/1/2005,126647400,121942966.2 A,4/1/2005,121942966.2,122244045 A,5/1/2005,122244045,117227480.04 A,6/1/2005,117227480.04,117913720.32 A,7/1/2005,117913720.32,116767296.

My guess is that this is sensitive to the size of the graphics device being used so the simplest thing to do is simply make your plot device bigger. Otherwise, we'll need a reproducible example. Michael
