Not getting correct values on boxplot from imported excel data

I am attempting to code two boxplots for comparisons on one plot. The boxplot is showing from 0 to about 12 on the left and 0 to 13 on the right no matter what I change. The data in the first column with numbers is in the 0.08 to like 0.15. The green and red are two data different data sets readSwingVec = xlsread('DigiPractice.xlsx', 'Sheet1', 'A11:AT19'); readSwingAlp = xlsread('DigiPractice.xlsx', 'Sheet1', 'A2:AT10');

SwingVec = readSwingVec(:,1); SwingAlp = readSwingAlp(:,1); SwingAandV = [SwingAlp, SwingVec];

% Plotting and formatting of plot figure(1) T = boxplot(SwingAandV); boxplot(T,'Labels',{'Alpl/fl','Vecko'})

Without your data, it will be hard to say anything specific. Please attach your spreadsheet using the paperclip. Also, please copy/paste your code. That makes it easier for us to test.

Okay I have done that

readSwingVec = xlsread('DigiPractice.xlsx', 'Sheet1', 'A11:AT19');
readSwingAlp = xlsread('DigiPractice.xlsx', 'Sheet1', 'A2:AT10');

SwingVec = readSwingVec(:,1);
SwingAlp = readSwingAlp(:,1);
SwingAandV = [SwingAlp, SwingVec];

% Plotting and formatting of plot
figure(1)
T = boxplot(SwingAandV,'Labels',{'Alpl/fl','Vecko'});

whos T

  Name      Size            Bytes  Class     Attributes

  T         7x2               112  double              

T

T = 7×2

10.0027 17.0002 11.0004 18.0002 12.0004 19.0002 13.0004 20.0002 14.0004 21.0002 15.0004 22.0002 16.0002 23.0002

ishandle(T)

ans = 7×2 logical array
   1   1
   1   1
   1   1
   1   1
   1   1
   1   1
   1   1

% When you do this, instead of having the effect of updating the boxplot 
% you just created, you are calling boxplot on the line handles of the
% previous boxplot (which happen to have numeric values around 10~23 in
% this case), which deletes the previous boxplot and makes a new one from 
% those numbers. Instead, include the Labels in the previous boxplot call.
boxplot(T,'Labels',{'Alpl/fl','Vecko'})
