Uwe, Thanks for your help. The solution solved most of my problem and was consistent with the other responses I got back.
The solution below gives me tick marks at 144 point intervals, yet when I try to get the information located at the point, I get the number position back, not the date (02/01/03,00:50). Any ideas?
