Is it possible to sort the data in bargraph as per date at X-axis in ascending or descending order ?

Hi there,

To clarify, I assume you've created a horizontal bar graph with a date histogram on the x-axis, correct? And you would like to know if you can reverse the direction of this axis so that "older" times are on the right instead of on the left?

Thanks,  
CJ
