In the attached file, all I did was:
- Right-click cell A4 and choose "Field Settings"
- Click the Number Format button
- Choose Date category and select "March 14, 2012"

thanks,
As you see the source data is a pivot table on the left of the pivot_chart
I ungrouped the tabled but didn't work!

In retrospect:
- rightclick the pivottable field with the date, select "Field settings". Click the Number format button and change the display format to the date format you like.
- rightclick the pivottable field with the date, select "Field settings". Click the Number format button and change the display format to the date format you like.
