A while back a colleague at work (who has since left my company) showed me an example of a graph within a Data Access Page in the Microsoft Northwind database. The Northwind database that I've downloaded doesn't contain such an example. Does anyone know of a Northwind DB with an exmaple of a graph embedded into a Data Access Page?
View RepliesI am just wondering how good of an example Northwind is?
I have been playing with the database and noticed that the number of units in stock doesn't decrease after I have created an order. I am trying to build an inventory database and would like this feature.
Am I wasting my time with Northwind?
Hi,
I have a problem with form design,
I want a form like in Northwind sample database: Summary of Sales by Year Report.
It use Sorting and Grouping for Footer that I can't find it in Form design.
Is it any other way to do it in Form design so I can get the same result like in Report design?.
The reason why I want it, because I want to control the size.
thankyou in advance for your help.

Hi
I am re-visiting access for the 1st time in a couple of years to develop a quotations system and I am just messing around at the moment with Northwind trying to work out how it all works.
I have come across a problem that is baffling me....
When displaying the order details table (referenced from products), the product ID is disoplayed in text form, not as a number. Whenever I try and do this with 2 similar tables using the query builder I always get just the other tables number. I have no idea what I'm doing wrong as every field, attribute, join etc seems to be just the same as the sample tables.
Please could someone help a duffer? :)
In the Northwind DB, there is a query of the "Ten Most Expensive Products"
After looking at it, I can't figure out where or how it knows to only pull the 10 highest price products. It's probably right in front of my nose...but it's making me crazy!
Thanks for any replies...
Wow! I just looked at the Access 2007 Northwind database sample and they have revamped it and given it some cool stuff. It is definitely not the "old" Northwind.

Hi There,
I want to synchronize 2 comboboxes (actually 3, but let's start with 2)
On a form I have 2 comboboxes:
- CompanyType (FK fkCompanyTypeID in table Contacts)
- Category (FK fkCompanyCategoryID in table Contacts)
Let's say we have companytype CT1 until CT10.
For CT1, CT2 & CT3 I want to choose a catagory, so the combobox must be 'enabled'.
For CT4 until CT10 the Catagory combobox must be disabled, so that I cannot choose a category value.
Actually I want to choose 2 catgories (2 comboboxes) for CT1 until CT3.
But I think that an explanation for the example above is sufficient for me.
Both comboboxes are filled by a Select Query, and the values are filled in a separate table. (Table CompanyType (PK pkCompanyTypeID) & Table CompanyCategory (PK pkCompanyCategoryID)).
Can someone please help me on this issue? :confused:
Thanks in advance for your reply,
Greets,

When attempting to select a letter in a form copied from the Northwind's Customer Phone List Form, I am now getting an error message that says "The object doesn't contain the Automation object "RecordsetClone'".
I never had that problem before.
Appears to be something in the Option Group that has gone awry, but I cannot access the Visual Basics behind the Macro.
Is there a way to suppress this message? It does not appear to be a problem in bringing up the sought after page.
:confused: :confused: Please help!!
Hi guys,
As you all know, in the Northwind sample database there are the Invoices and Invoices Filter query. The Invoices Filter query adds a criteria to select only items that belong to the current order. OrderID is integer.
However, if I change OrderID to Replication ID, it stops working.
Any idea how to make it work? Currently I work around this problem in my DB by adding a criteria to filter by Date and Customer ID, but IMO this is less than ideal.
I came across this Time line db using a box that grows depending on timeline.
Can anyone tell me if it is possible to plot a value using a box that grows in accordance with the value?
This should serve as a replacement for bar graph or an alternative at that.
Please help.

Hi there,
I need to create a graph containing monthly data for numbers of changes raised.
It needs to display the total amount of changes raised split into priority per month like this:

Do i need multiple queries for each month? How do I collate them all together to create the graph?
Thanks in advance
We have a daily task that generates a dozen graphs. Each day, we want to display the graphs on a large screen monitor for public viewing, preferably as a slideshow. Currently the graphs come from Access 2003. How can we automate getting the graphs in a format that will work with PowerPoint or some other slideshow software?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have tried to create graphs in my reports and when I try to resize it, the right side of the graph gets cut off. I am using Access 2000.
When I do the same exercise in Access XP Pro, it works. Can someone help me? I have downloaded the most updated service pack for it as well.
I am trying to change the fill colors on a bar graph based on the value the bar graph has.
the bar graph gives the percentages of tasks and I would like to have it so that the fill color of a bar is based on the a set of values for the percentage... so if the percentage of task A is between 0 and 25% it should be red, if percentage of task A is between 25% and 50% it should be yellow, and if the percentage of task A is between 50% and 100% it should be green.
this is the query that the graph is based off of
Code:SELECT TEST_RawData.DeliverableDesc, FormatPercent(Avg(PercentComplete)) AS CurrentProgressFROM TEST_RawDataGROUP BY TEST_RawData.DeliverableDesc;
This is the data table of the graph
DeliverableDesc | CurrentProgress
test 1 | 82.64%
test 2 | 55.75%
test 3 | 30.09%
test 4 | 13.00%

these are my concerns
- first is the strucutre and syntax for the above Sub Report_Open good?
-second how do I match percents the query is outputting to the table to the percents I write in the strArrTaskPercents array
-third how would I change how it matches percents so that it matches a range of percentages, like the first example if something is between 50% and 100% it should be green.
if anyone can directly help with the code, or indirectly point me to some examples, articles, etc. that might help me it would be greatly appreciated.
I am trying to export the result of a query to a specific Excel sheet where I have a dynamic graph. The results are exported on a monthly basis, so I am just adding the data, and the graph reflects that. Now, I can export to excel easily enough by using the Transfer Spreadsheet method, but this creates a new worksheet, thus destroying my lovely graph. I have even tried the Output Query method, but to no avail. Is there any way I can export to excel and keep the graph intact?

Hello,
I got a simple graph on my form based on the following query:
date | ordercount:
-------------------------
16/11/06 20
15/11/06 18
14/11/06 19
13/11/06 18
10/11/06 19
09/11/06 18
My graph is leaving out the TOP record and my datasheet I get this result:
16/11/06 | 20
-------------------------
15/11/06 18
14/11/06 19
13/11/06 18
10/11/06 19
09/11/06 18
So as you can see, my graph is actually confusing my TOP record with the title and that's why it's not showing. So how can I fix this?
On a sidenote:
As you can see, I didn't work on 11/11 & 12/11 but my graph is still showing those dates but of course with value 0. How can I leave out dates where I created no orders?
Kind regards,
B.
Hello :D I have an issue with Access I was hoping someone could help me on. So I have this pie chart graph with 3 sections, colored red for East, Green for West, and Blue for North. Now the problem is that sometimes, the data that I pull in doesn't have a "West" and therefor doesn't add it to the chart. This, however, throws the coloring scheme off as it assigns colors so that 1 is red, 2 is green, 3 is blue rather than East is red, West if Green, and North is Blue. I'll provide some images so it'll be easier to understand. (Clickable thumbnails)

View 3 Replies View RelatedHi,
I would like to display a graph in a form along with the fields from a table. The user will be allow to update the table and the graph will be updated. So far I am able to display the graph on the report but I cannot find a way to display the graph on the form. Can somebody help? Thanks in advance.
I have an x-y graph on a form that gets its data from a query. The query pulls five records of data from a table. So there are five data points I want to have displayd on the graph. I got the graph to work properly except it only displays four points! The first data point is not displaying.
I tried to set the datasheet in the graph to "ignore" the first row, as I noticed immediately that it does not have a number reference....I am assuming that is the problem.
Is there a method to resolve this easily? I assume that it must be done with vba. My data is used by the graph in two columns...first column is the X value, second column is the Y value.
My problems is a difficult one.
Here is the breakdown. I have a number of tables within a database, I have a main screen as to pick the required table I want to display in either tabular or graph format, the table works. I have created a graph and am trying to get the code or row source in the properties to look at the VBA I have written.
Any ideas please?
It’s something to do with the row source type. If it were a function, I would just put the function name there. It’s a private sub.
Private Sub ListMonkey()
Dim TableName As String
Dim strSQL As String
TableName = Me.Graph_Selected_Table
strSQL = "SELECT [LOAD], [Displacement] FROM " & TableName
End Sub
This is the last little thing, and I have no idea how to solve it.
I currently have a form from which users can select their name and it will open a report listing events they have attended. It does this through a macro running a filter. What I would like to happen is the same criteria that is being used to filter the report be used as criteria for a different (unfortunately) query that can then generate a graph in the report as well.how to get the criteria into the second query for the graph.

I have this table from a query:
1 1,34
2 1,23
3 1,21
1 0,65
2 0,55
3 ...
1
2
3
1
And I want 1,2,3 at the Y-axis and the X-axis to be the other values (1,34...)
But I only get a graph that shows 1,2,3 at Y but only the value 1 at the X-axis and the 1,34-values as legends! Why?
:confused: I wish to construct a form that displays a graph showing the monthly sales totals year on year. In this way - I will be able to see quite easily how the present monthly income compares to previous years.
Therefore, each year will have its own data series on the graph... the problem I have is that I wish the graph to automatically recognise the roll-over to the next year thereby creating the next series for that year.
This would mean having the months Jan-Dec on the X axis and the income scale as the Y axis. Each data series representing the year.
Otherwise, the alternative is to manually change the underlying datasource every year to include .... has anyone done anything similar to this that they would be willing to share please?
Thank you.

Hi,
I have a graph which uses the value of two combo boxes for beginning and end parameters. In order to work, the datevalue() function is used.
When i design the rowsource, it works. But when I exit Access and open it again, it doesn´t. Then the rowsource is either wrong or too complex.
What is going on?
Fuga.
Hi All,
I currently have a Pareto graph created by a query, that counts occurence and then uses the Dsum function to create the cumalative %. The function is as follows:
CumPct: DSum("[CountofConcern_Number]","qry_ProbByConcern","[CountofConcern_Number]>=" & [Total Concerns] & "")/DSum("[CountofConcern_Number]","qry_ProbByConcern")
This is as per MS article: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/208373
Now this is OK and is as per the MS article but if you have counts that are the same, it just give the same cumalative % for each one that is the same. Please see attached image for an example of what this query produces.
Does anyone know how I can sort this out? TIA
