I just took your sample data, plugged it into a table and inserted a chart
into a form.
Using the wizard, I chose a Line Graph, with the orientation you described.
Yes, the Chart Wizard mangled it completely, but once it was done, I went
back to the properties of the graph, and changed its rowsource from what the
wizard generated to a simple SELECT [Time],[Temp] FROM [Readings] and the
resultant graph looked fine to me.
BTW, Time isn't a good choice for a field name: it's a reserved word, and
using reserved words can lead to problems. I'd recommend changing it to
something like ReadingTime.

Thanx Doug,
It never occured to me I could look into the property box. Yes, it does look
"more right", now. The only problem is that the intervals between the points
on the time scale are equal. I want the interval of 20 minutes between 2
readings to be very different from an interval of 2 hours. What should I do?
