Hi I'm new to SQL. I'm using VBA to extract data from the SQL 2008 server and put it in an excel sheet. I'm averaging the data per hour with the intention to make a weekly graph out of it. Unfortunately at some timeperiods no data has been recorded and thus no timestamp has been created. However I still need those timestamps to make a graph with a continuous time interval of an hour. Below is an example of such a timegap and also the sql string I am using. Is there a way to fill in this timegap?

kind regards,
