Order of display on box plot

Hi Guys,

I have data that is arranged as follows in my table, I have shown only one column but each of a, b,c,d has a data column associated with it.

Category
a
b
c
d

When I plot the box plots from left to right, I get a,c,b,d on my X axis.

How can I make my box plots with the category X axis as a,b,c,d?

Thanks.

Re: Order of display on box plot

Go to column info for your data. In the column properties popup menu select "Value Ordering". You can the define the order that ordinal value will show up in an analysis such as a box plot.
