At start up, the graphs are drawn from the data in the monthly log file (Sep09log.txt in this case) so you most likely have some sort of problem/corruption in there which is stopping it being processed - a blank line, or something similar. If you can't see the problem, upload it here and I'll have a look.

Hi Steve I have looked through & as yet not found anything
I presume that the problem will resolve its self when the next months log starts ?
its not really causing a problem just a little frustration
the only thing that i thought could have caused this was an alteration to the system clock date
this happened when i was testing a piece of java for my site this created a data file for october which i have now deleted
Thanks
Neil

Yes - but other things will probably not be working properly too, such as 'view this month' for September.

Yes, that's possible.

If you want to upload it, I'll be happy to look at it.
