Olaf,

I got it to work, sort of. (Well, in my bar graph.)

I created a simple bar graph with (Date, Value), so the x-axis represents dates. If you right-click on a bar in the graph, you can change the color rule. Go to Series Properties, and Fill. Then enter an expression like this one:

=IIF(Weekday(Fields!TheDate.Value)>=6,"Red","Automatic")

{6=Saturday, 7=Sunday}

Hope this helps,

Pieter

Hey Pieter,

thanks for help. I tryed, but it would not be working.

See what I have done in Screenshot. Maybe it is the wrong point to do that.

Thanks a lot

Olaf

Oh, I understand now. You wanted to change the color of the individual values on the timeline/X-axis when the value is on a weekend. Don't know how to do that one.... I tried using the formula there, and no joy.
