Access Newbie Needs Help! With Charts And Data Order
Apr 6, 2008
Hi, okay completely new to access. I'm trying to create a chart based on a query with 1 record 8 fields. I can not figure out a way to rearrange the data into two fields 8 records.
The background is I have a hundred units, each with 8 wheels. I have a table with the following fields.
-Unit part number
-Diameter of wheel 1
-Diameter of wheel 2
-Diameter of wheel 3
-Diameter of wheel 4
-Diameter of wheel 5
-Diameter of wheel 6
-Diameter of wheel 7
-Diameter of wheel 8
So, the query tells me how many wheel diameters between a certain range, with the following fields:
- Diameter >530
- 530> Diameter >540
- 540> Diameter >550
- 550> Diameter >560
- 560> Diameter >570
- 570> Diameter >580
- 580> Diameter >590
- 590> Diameter >600
Now I want to plot the range on the x axis and # wheels in that range on the y axis of a bar chart.
Any suggestions on how I can achieve this? How do I create the diameter range as a record rather than a field?
Many thanks!!!

Code:

Dim ch As Object ''Excel.Chart
Dim myRange As Object
Set xl = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
[Code] ....

I am having trouble arranging my data from a record row into a query that will give me columns for the pivot charts that I need. My guess is that I need some sort of a complicated SQL statement, and I know almost nothing about SQL. I have expressed the problem better, and with graphics, here: http://www.olypen.com/bhardin/RGB/RGB.htm. I would love to hear the solution to this aggravating :mad: problem.

The BIG problem is this.
I need a basic string graph over time recieved from a cross tab query. The data points all come in fine, but the "strings" / lines connecting the points do not show up.
I believe the reason is because there are just too many records.
I culled the data down using a vba loop to only show 1 stop per minute. (BTW, is there a way to do this using only SQL?) I now show all record points, but still do not show the lines between points. Some of the lines show up, but the more data points on the graph there are, the less the lines show up, till only one or two show.
This is an Access limitation that I'm unsure of how to get around. This really shouldn't be an issue though, because Excel handles the graph just fine EVEN BEFORE the culling of the data down to access acceptable limits. And it shows the lines between each record as well.
Does anyone know of a resolution for this?

I have a nice chart that hasd done what I wanted it too.
Now I want to make the amount of X-AXIS data variable. Typically this would be 64 points. If you look at the datasheet, I can manually set the number of points by making sure the row selector is "raised".
Now that's say there is only 16 points of data to control. I can plot that those points but the chart is still 64 points wide with no data for points 17-64.
How can I, through code, prevent points 17-64 from plotting and thereby expand the graph horizontally larger and not display those null points?
I have tried a number of things including:
objDataSheet.Row(17).Delete
Graph_Data.Range("A1:A16:)
etc...
Nothing I have tried has worked. Is what I need to do possible?
Thanks much.

a co-worker set up several pivot charts in queries, that we now need to get into a distributable format. I had envisioned having these in a report, but access doesn't agree. Is there any way of getting the chart out of access, intact, to place in a word or power point file, or into a report? My attempts to get the chart into a report have all ended with the table-like grid coming up. Surely there's a way...
thanks!

I have a couple charts that I would like to show on my switchboard. Right now I only have one that is up everytime I open my database. Is there anyway to have it do a random Sub form show up everytime you open the database up? Thank you for your help. Without this forum I would have shot myself a long time ago!

I have an application in Access 2003. It uses VBA to open an Excel file. The file has one tab for charts and one for data. The program counts how many charts needs to be created, one per project. It then will place 4 charts per tab, creating as many chart tabs as necessary, keep one data tab. The program then writes the data and links the data to the corresponding chart. It will also write legends, and scale the charts. This all works fine under Access 2003/Excel 2003.The error I get is "Application-defined error or object defined error".The line that gives me the error is: Set chCopy = xlsheet.ChartObjects(idx).I am using the Multi-Chart option frmChartType = 1
Now I'm moving to the Office 2010 world. It is not working. Below is the code I run to do the magic. I guess something is happening in Excel 2010 that is different from 2003.I found when I comment out the error line, and other lines dependent on chCopy it creates the charts, but all the charts are pictures and not charts!!
Code:
Public Sub GenerateChart()
' Generate an Excel chart
Dim db As Database
Dim rst As DAO.Recordset
Dim xlapp As Object
[code]...

I've developed and used over the past 20 years to handle my home finances. It includes several charts that were probably created back in Access 2003, which I used up until a couple of weeks ago when I subscribed to Office 365 Home and set up Office 2013, including Access.Most things worked without a hitch. In fact, all my old VBA code seems to run just fine.
However, the charts don't work. The right side of chart gets cut off way short of the margin both in print preview and report view. Everything else looks fine and the data is correct.
I've fiddled and fussed and fangled with zoom, clip and stretch. I've tried to resize the chart area - it just snaps back. I've tried everything I can think of based on 20 years of fussing with Access charts - which has always been a major pain - without success.

I am using an Access 2003 database to create a Word report that contains Graphs. We have since moved to Office 2010, and now the vba code will not select the graph and populate the data, i presume this is because the data is no longer in a datasheet but Excel itself.

I have created a series of pie charts in reports based on queries. The data that is being charted are agree, strongly agree, neither agree nor disagree, disagree, and strongly disagree. I want the colors for these to be consistent in all the pie charts but they are coming out different colors on each chart: i.e., agree may be blue on one pie chart but yellow on another pie chart. How can I change the colors either in the pie charts or legends so that they are consistent on all the pie charts?

Hi,
I'm designing a database for work and am using buttons instead of the navigation features already standard with access.
I need some form of code?? for my button. I want a user to be able to click this button when finished entering data; access will then save the data, close the form and return the user to a main menu, like a switchboard.
Any suggestions or indeed code, lol, would be very helpful
Regards

Ok, I've been given a task to create a hierarchy diagram for my company, unfortunately the diagram has to be created using one excel spreadsheet. I would prefer it if the database could be created using the smallest amount of user input, so all he user has to do is import the spreadsheet to access and hit a button then the hierarchy is created.
I'm currently only going one step at a time, trying to sort the data from the spreadsheet using queries. But this is the problem:
Raw Data table
ID, Firstname, Lastname, Status, SupervisorFirstName, SupervisorLastName
Table1
ID1, Firstname1, Lastname1, Status1, SupervisorFirstName1, SupervisorLastName1
The idea is that the hierarchy diagram should start with the boss and move down to the mere siblings like me, and everyone will be connected. But for one reason or another this isn't the case, so at the moment I am trying to move the persons record if their supervisors name is not in the tree, so the SupervisorFirstName and SupervisorLastName are not in the Firstname and Lastname column.
I have been using the following SQL
INSERT INTO Table1 ( ID, LASTNAME1, FIRSTNAME1, Status1, SUPERVISORLASTNAME1, SUPERVISORFIRSTNAME1 )
SELECT ID, LASTNAME, FIRSTNAME, Status, SUPERVISORLASTNAME, SUPERVISORFIRSTNAME
FROM RawData
WHERE (((RawData.SUPERVISOR_FIRST_NAME)=FIRST_NAME) AND (RawData.SUPERVISOR_LAST_NAME)=LAST_NAME);
When I change the LastName to "SMITH" I know how many records I should get and it works, but how can I go through both columns finding any matches??
I may have described this quite badly so if you need any more info please let me know.

Hi all,
I'm just having a dabble in VBA for Access so I'm fairly newbish!
I have a field [Reference Number] that increments in the table by 1 everytime - but the user has to enter this manually (its not auto-incrementing). How can I do the following: when the user selects a new row in the table it will automatically look in the table for the last entered [Reference Number], increment it, and put that value in the Userforms TextBox??
Hope you understand this,
TIA

I hope this is the correct place for this type of question.
I have two tables, let's call one the "record table" that holds each record of interest. Let's call the other one the "rule table," as each entry is a "rule." The two fields of the rule table are rule and description.
I have a form with a list box and a text box. I'd like the user to be able to choose a rule from the list box and this would control the "rule" field in the current record. However, I'd like the text box to display the description corresponding to that rule, by looking it up in the rule table.
I know I've probably made it sound very complicated, but I assure you I'm trying to do something very simple here. Thanks for any help anyone can give me!

I am fairly new to Access, so please bear with my hopefully easy to answer questions. I am trying to create a database for a university where we input all of our student leaders information (name, email, student ID number, etc) along with the groups they are involved with so we can track and see who is involved with alot, and so we have easy access to their contact info if we need to do that. Anyway, I have already created a database to take in all the information and spit out the reports. It is probably pretty messily put together, but like i said, this is my first time working with Access on this scale.
My question is, when I created a report to display all the students involved with a specific activity, I ran into a bit of a problem. There are two students with the same last name, and for the activity in question, they both should be shown. However, it only shows one of their names (I have it set to show the last, first) but it shows both of their activity status. What am I missing to be able to split the names show its shows both names?
Here is a link to download the access file, and perhaps someone can tell me how to fix it.
http://us.f13.yahoofs.com/bc/440a2a54me2cd2c62/bc/access/Involvement+DB.mdb?bf8mTJFBardSN6ge
All of the sensitive information has been removed. It will still work without it though.
Thanks!

I am trying to learn first how do i lock a db so that it will keep users from tampering with the forms and queries, second i am trying to learn how can i transfer the form, queries, etc. to a new ms access database without having to recreate them all over again.

And the new db with new information is keep separate from the old information in the new database so i had to recreate the form everytime.

Hey all,
I've never used Access much...i was able to use it OK at one point but ive forgotten all about it now.
I need to create something very simple for the reception at my work...
When a customer phones we want to be able to keep track of how they heard of us - so we want a very simple access/VB program.
The best way would be to have buttons of each of the magazines our company is listed in..then when someone phones and says "ahhh magazine 3" the receptionist can press a button and the button will add 1 to a field in a table?/report? next to that magazine.
Hope that makes sense :s
Any help would be very appreciated! - It seems very simple to do ?
Thanks

I have a table (Master) that contains columns such as MsgLocation, MsgName, MsgScript, and MsgTxt. I want to create a form where the user would have an area to type in a 'string' and when they hit enter (or select a button), a (background) query would execute a lookup on master "where MsgTxt LIKE %string%"... For example, if a user wants a list of all MsgTxt values that contain "Please hold" they would type in a box "Please hold" and the query would use %Please hold% in the search criteria.
I don't have a clue on the first thing to do to get this done. And I'm new at this...
Thanks!!!!

I've been looking through the help for this.. but I can't figure it at all...
Simply... I've set a click method for command button on form to requery some fields. In effect it's a refresh.
What I would like to do it set the same command buttons gotfocus method to call the click sub.
Private Sub Refresh_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_Refresh_Click
DoCmd.DoMenuItem acFormBar, acRecordsMenu, 5, , acMenuVer70
Me!SelectMSN.Requery
Me!LesseeSubForm.Requery
Me!ReviewSubForm.Requery
Me!InsSubFormQuery.Requery
Me!SecuritySubForm.Requery
Me!AssetSubForm.Requery
Exit_Refresh_Click:
Exit Sub
Err_Refresh_Click:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_Refresh_Click
End Sub
Private Sub Refresh_GotFocus()
Refresh_Click
End Sub
Reason being the gotfocus is called from another 'input' form and I want to data to be visible in main form after a save/close button i've created.
Thanks.
