Re: Problem plotting time on X axis

[Ian McCallion]

Fritz,

Part of the problem was that in your original question the comment was
incorrect:
    ser_date=datenum(dtmeT,timeFormat); %serial date is secs since 1/1/0000
It should have been
    ser_date=datenum(dtmeT,timeFormat); %serial date is days since 1/1/0000

Good example of comments causing bugs!!
