Questions About My Simple Graph
Nov 16, 2006
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.

Hi all, I built a system in access for my a level IT course a few years back but haven't had need to use access since. just been asked to build simple system at work and i'm forgetting some really simple things. trouble is i think i'm overcomplicating the terms and can't find anything in the help file!
basically the system is to keep track of how many hours various people have worked on various jobs.
I've got 3 tables:
Jobs - job id, location etc etc
Staff - staff id, name etc
link - job id, staff id and hours worked.
the job and staff tables have the id as the primary key, and i've set the relationship to link them to the corresponding field in the link table. which is all fine if i remember rightly?!
now what i'm trying to do is set up a form for entring the hours worked etc into the link table. we use job id numbers all the time so i have that as a drop down box. what i want is to have a drop down for employee names, which will insert the employee id into the link table- basically so we can work with names rather than numbers. for the life of me i can't remember how to do it. i know is really simple but i can't find a way to express what i want to do to search for it in the help or online!
if anybody can refresh my memory it would be much appreciated!

I am still learning and I have 2 questions.
First...I have a table called company rates which will be used to calculate time and materials. In the material field, I need to enter .10 for 10 percent. When I enter .10 the field changes back to zero. I have it set to long interger. Is this wrong?
Also, I am working on the form that will calculate all of this. I have a field that needs to look in a flex price field. If there is a number in the flex price than that is the labor, if not, it needs to multiply the estimated time (Text43) times the quantity, times the CurrentLaborRate contained in the CompanyRates subform. I can't seem to get it right...
=IIf([FlexPrice]>1,[FlexPrice],[Text43]*[Quantity]*[frmCompanyRates.CurrentLaborRate])
I know it is probably something simple but I can't figure it out. Can anyone help?
THANKS SO MUCH!

Since this is my first posting, i want to thank all the people who contribute their knowledge to this site.
I'll get to the point now. I have a form that holds fields belonging to 2 tables that are related by the same primary key. This form works fine for data entry purposes. However, i want this form to perform a search function also. The user can type a new Id# in a combo box and then fill in the rest of the fields on the form to create a new record OR choose a Id# that already exists from the same combo box (drop-down) and by doing so envokes all the rest of the fields that are related to the choosen Id# to display their contents, in other words the Id# is used to perform a simple search that displays the data on the same form.
I would appreciate a comprehensive answer because i have already busted my brains on this one for some time now..
help anyone?

I'm sorry if I'm asking relatively simple questions. I'm a break/fix guy, and our in house programmers told us it would be 6 months before they could help us out, so we're tackling this chore ourselves.
We have a database of company names along with corresponding contact information. Each company has at least one associated id number. One company may have several numbers, but each number is unique. A very simple creature. I'm using a combo down box to allow the users to search by company name. This box only pulls the distinct company names. There is also a second combo box that has every id number. These are the only two methods used to navigate through the form.
How can I set up these two boxes to "track" each other? Right now, if I select a company name, the id number box doesn't move to its corresponding entry, and vice versca. How can I set these two boxes up to follow one another as a user navigates?
Our second problem might be a little more challenging. Like I said, each company may have more than one id number. We would like to set up a query that would pull all of the company id numbers when a user selects a name using the above drop down box and insert them into a text box.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks!

I hope that this will be simple for you -
I have a table which includes the fields Date of Birth and Age Group.
Age Group is based on the persons age so I created a query (qryAge) to calculate age using the statement: DateDiff("yyyy",[DOB],Now())+Int(Format(Now(),"mmdd")<Format([DOB],"mmdd"))
This query works fine and when i run it it displays each persons age.
Now to calculate the Age group I have created an update query which when run will update the Age Group field, however it does not work. The if statement I have used is -
IIf([qryAge]![Age]<"18","Under 18",(IIf([qryAge]![Age]>"17" And [qryAge!Age]<"35","Under 35",(IIf([qryAge]![Age]>"34" And [qryAge]![Age]<"45","Under 45",(IIf([qryAge]![Age]>"44" And [qryAge!Age]<"55","Under 55",(IIf([qryAge]![Age]>"44","55+")))))))))
If someone could tell me what is wrong it would be very greatly appreciated, as no matter what I try i cannot get it to work!

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?

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%
now I have looked at this http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=200527 and tried to remodel it to my situation but have some concerns. This is what I have so far
vba Code: Original - vba Code Private Sub Report_Open(Cancel As Integer) Dim chtObj As Object, strRowSource As String Dim rsRowSourceFiltered As Recordset Dim i As Integer, j As Integer Dim strArrTaskPercents() As String Dim intArrTaskColors() As Integer ' The color integers are those that are used by the QBColor function to assign point colors.

Assign the color of the chart column, bar, slice etc. Graph10.SeriesCollection(1).Points(i). _ Interior.Color = QBColor(intArrTaskColors(j)) End If Next rsRowSourceFiltered.MoveNext WendEnd Sub Private Sub Report_Open(Cancel As Integer) Dim chtObj As Object, strRowSource As String Dim rsRowSourceFiltered As Recordset Dim i As Integer, j As Integer Dim strArrTaskPercents() As String Dim intArrTaskColors() As Integer ' The color integers are those that are used by the QBColor function to assign point colors.

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.

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?

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 :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)

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.

Hi!
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

Hello,
I recently started using the Chart feature in access. Everytime the form with the graph loads up windows installer pops up and asks me to install. Since i let it install like 3 times, i click cancel and it still works fine. Anyone else have a problem like this? How can i prevent it from installing everything, since its already installed?
