Q: Use 2nd column for label data

This should be an easy one. The online help for numbers even shows an example under Add Charts > Adjust chart markings and labels.  My chart is a simple 2D column chart. In one column I have weight in pounds, and in the second column I have a date. When I have only the weight column selected as data, I get a chart that is nearly perfect, but it has no date labels. Whenever I try to include the date data, I get an inverted X and Y relationship. Once I've selected a cell as a data reference, there doesn't seem to be any way to deselect it. All I want to do is chart weight against date, and have the date appear as a label.

 

Any advice is welcome.
