how do i format a chart into landscape view. My charts always format to portrait view, but my data is in the chart as landscape, so i loose information. I cant figure out a way to get access to make my chart in landscape view.
I have a pie chart in my report, and when i adjust the date, the weights, which are shown in the pie chartt change. Ranging from 0%-30%. how can i format the pie chart, to not show the weightings that are zero in the labels, and in the legend?
Using a Microsoft Chart Object 6.0 in an Access 2010 report. It's easy enough to do the basics and that chart responds to data.In my case, I have 12 lines, or columns, being controlled by data. It responds to the data. just fine. What I want to do is control the line weight and colour of each line through VBA.
You can click on the chart itself on the report form, but formatting the line you actually want is almost impossible. Pretending we can, you get the pop-up configuration windows and the TAB "PATTERNS". Under that, you can select "LINE" and then choose the style, color and weight. This is what I need to do in VBA.
Lines like this do not work:Graph_Data.Columns("A").Line.Weight = 5 or... objDataSheet.Columns("A").Line.Weight = 5I tried a variety of versions of that and am pulling my hair out.
must i install a printer in order for me to change my report to landscape?.. This doesn't sound right to me.. currently my report is set to portrait and when i go to page setup (menu option) i receive a msg saying i must install a printer first.. is this the only place where i can set my report to landscape?.. is there a property i've overlooked?.. thanks!
I am currently trying to export a query to PDF, but I want it to be in landscape. Is this possible? Here is the code that I have so far as well.
Code: If Not IsNull(displayQuery) And displayQuery <> "" Then DoCmd.OutputTo acOutputQuery, displayQuery, acFormatPDF, OutputString, True, "", 0, acExportQualityPrint Else MsgBox ("You Must First Select a Query to Export!") End If End Sub
I have an existing report generated in Access 2007 that is currently in Portrait mode and I want to reformat the data so that it fits into Landscape mode.
The report consists of a main report and 2 subrports.
I have managed to do the majority of the reformatting to both the main and subreports except that I can't figure out how to change the layout of the actual data that is displayed.
What I'm talking about is the "slider" control (if this is what you call it) that is displayed on on the main report.
I'm trying to create a chart in a form, this is not a problem, however, the chart types available are a bit limited compared to if i inserted a Microsoft Excel Chart object.
I'd do that except I'm trying to create a chart based on a query.
Is there a way to make the chart wizard use the Microsoft Excel Chart object as its chart creator so I have access to the chart types available in that object?
Is it possible to have part of a report set to portrait, but another part set to landscape? Like you can in Word by adding section breaks and setting the page layout separately for each section?
I have a "MainReport" comprised of 5 sub reports which are all portrait. Now I've been asked to add a 6th section and it will need to be landscape. I tried and tried to get it all on a portrait page but it's just too cramped.
I could keep them as two reports and have the command button simply run the second one at the same time. The thing is, that button "prints" the main report to a PDF file and emails it. And I don't want the new report to be in a separate PDF.
If you can't have separate sections, then is there any way to print separate Access reports into a single PDF? I'm using CutePDF but would be open to trying a different PDF printer if appropriate.
I have a landscape oriented report which is A4 size. When I select Landscape in print preview the result is cut off on the right. In the form's design mode I get a little green triangle on the top-left which tells me that the form is wider than the page size. Is this because I am using a default printer with a portrait setting?
I want to avoid having to change the default printer for each different form orientation. I am printing to a pdf printer (pdfCreator which doesn't appear to have a landscape output setting) while testing my design so as not to waste ink & paper.
I have a form with a chart , 2 textboxes for start date and end date and a button to filter the data( filter the data by date range) How do i continue from that? The chart isnt updating.
Need to confirm whether the Default formatting option in the Conditional formatting Dialog won't work in datasheet view of a form. Please note that all conditional criteria are working fine but not the Default Formatting option - only in the Datasheet view (In Single Form view the default formatting is working fine)
Can you tell me if it is possible to create a main report with a Portrait view and then add a sub report to the main report and print this out in landscape mode. If you can please can you advise on the best way to do this. Thanks PWF
I have a stack bar chart that shows hours an event took including delays so its 3 stacked bars. I want to add a goal or target line to the chart but can't seem to keep the bars stack because I have to change the chart type. Any ideas ??
I have a report that is populating from one query. It takes data for a year and groups it by month with the lost time for that month. I am comparing 3 years data 20005, 2006, and 2007. I have set the chart up and it looks good except that my time for each month goes into the data area as a "CountOf" lost time and all months are therefore one. I want to show the lost time for each month. I have tried right clicking on the field in the data area and Autocalc is set to Count, but everything else is grayed out and unavailable. How can I change this setting to just display the value? Thanks in advance for the help.
I know that the wizard wont allow me to put in more than six fields in the chart. Is there any way that I can get around this???
PivotChart: if i have a field named "Jan", when i put it in the pivot chart or table as a sum, it changes the name to Sum_Of_Jan. Is there any way that i can change this?? thank you.
I once saw in this forum a link to a table that had instructions for referencing forms, controls, subforms and all that good stuff depending on which form you are on. I have searched and searched and I can't retrace my steps to find it again. Could someone please point me to it?
I'm currently using MS Access 2000 - When using the chart wizard is there any way of sorting the data by month ? At present I'm getting all my data on one chart but I want to spilt this into seperate months. (ie; 1 chart for July, 1 chart for Aug etc) I know there is the option for choosing 'between dates' but I don't want to have to do a fresh chart every time

I have a table with eight fields. I want to do a chart where I the piles are "tighten" togther two and two. I would like the chart to look something like this (Example):
Report repeats the SAME chart for each value on the x-axis (i.e. x-axis is the date and same chart repeats for each month). The chart on the first page is correct and is the only chart I need. How can I change the settings of the chart so the report is the first page???
