Axis label values in charts

Code snippet:

for (int i = 0; i < vals.Length -1; i++)
    {
        series1.Points.Add(Convert.ToDouble(vals[i])); 
        series1.AxisLabel = date[i];
    }

This is what I have:

1

Whereas this is what I want (estimation of dates):

2

Ideally I would like the axis to start on the first day of a month and end on the last. The arrays are both the same length, and both contain strings. Anyone succeeded with this before?

The data range may be a few days, a week, several months or a year, but I need to plot a months worth of data.

I am using .net 4 charts, the kind that come bundled with visual studio.

     series1.AxisLabel = date[i]; 
 }
//replace this


for (int i = 0; i < vals.Length -1; i++)
 {
     series1.Points.AddXY(Convert.ToString(date[i]), Convert.ToDouble(vals[i])); 
 }

series1.AxisLabel = date[0]; 
//with this

This plots a chart with points placed above (although slightly off centre) the relevant date points. Hope it helps someone.
