How do I get the numbers ipad app to plot a graph of dates against values, where the most recent date is on the right of the graph, but the most recent date is at the top rather than bottom of the rows in the table?

Also how can it be a line graph without plotting a circle at each value?

Thanks this is very frustrating

iPad, iOS 6.0.2

Make a copy of the table and produce your Line chart or Bar chart from the copy. Sort the copy into the order you want to see in your chart.

Alternately you could use a Scatter Chart...

LG,

I should have noted that I made my example in the Mac version of Numbers. I don't think you have the same line formatting options in the iOS version.
