I can't seem to size any of my charts to 100% of their object's size. I've attached screen shots of a chart in Design View, the chart properties, Chart Design View, and Print Preview. I've tried all of the Size Mode options.
View Replieswe are moving our database from access 2007 to access 2010. I have a query where the results are shown in a pivot chart. when i try to add field items to the pivot chart, the chart goes blank. It works fine in access 2007. none of the columns have illegal characters in them and i tried recreating the form from scratch and that didn't work either.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am creating a database and need to produce a report that will form an itemised quotation.There can be up to 8 items on the quotation along with their associated costs to the customer. I am trying to make the "item" field dynamically expand if necessary when longer text is entered into it and then expand the corresponding "Totals" fields to match the new size.I have tried using the "Can Grow" property however for some reason the formatting does not cascade down to the fields below and the "Totals" fields remain the same size.
To try and explain better I have included a screen shot of the relevant part of the report and how it looks when printed. I should point out that the "QuotesQuote" box at the top of the screen is set to "Can Grow" and when that expands the boxes below automatically move to accommodate this.
I have created a report that includes 4 subreports. The subreports are displaying survey results from 4 different survey channels. New survey data is added to the tables monthly so the subreports will grow in size. Is there a way to have the subreports automatically resize and push down the subreport below? Currently what is happening is a subreport will grow and the additional data disappears underneath the next subreport. Is there a better way to create a report that displays information from multiple reports that will change in size?

I am editing a database that provides the option of creating custom reports, where the user can input a date range of their choice and receive aggregate data for that time frame. Although all of the numbers in the report are correct, I am having trouble with a chart that I inserted into the report.
Specifically, if the date range requested spans 2 calendar years (i.e. April 2014 through January 2015), the data for January 2015 appears at the beginning of the year (so the chart x-axis is for Jan through Dec, and the Jan 2015 data is showing up in Jan (as if it was 2014, not the end of the given range in 2015). When I try with smaller time frames within a calendar year, it adjusts just fine (i.e. shrinking the window so just March-May is displayed on the graph).
How to adjust the axis so that it properly records the data range- so that it would start the axis with April and end in January, for example?
So I am adding a chart (on a subreport) to a report that has multiple subreports already. I have gotten the chart to show up correctly on the report, but now 2 of my other subreports are not working. I am being prompted to input parameters for these subreports that used to pull their parameters (between dates) from the main report.
I read somewhere that charts master/child linking doesn't work but I'm not sure if that applies to subreports with charts on them, or just charts in general. I've tried changing the query on the chart subreport a little without luck. Is this likely some glitch thing? Should I keep trying to alter the query or maybe there is some other work around option?
I have a query written that has two numbers. One is the trucking fleet size (63) and the other is the average number of trucks used over a time period (in this example, its 52.2)..I just want to create a pie chart that has 52.2/63. so the pie would be roughly 90% filled.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have browsed a few forums and am still having trouble creating a pie chart that has the proper layout that I would prefer.
I have created a query that will list the data I would like to organize into a pie chart. The query, when run, will prompt the user for a start date and an end date and then display the data in this form:
EmployeeX | SumofProject hours | SumofDemo Hours | SumofAdministration hours | SumofEtc hours (5 other categories of hours)
EmployeeY | SumofProject hours | SumofDemo Hours | SumofAdministration hours | SumofEtc hours (5 other categories of hours)
OK, now that I have the data in this format I would like to create a report that includes tabs for each employee, each tab will have a pie chart that has one employee and a pie chart showing how their hours are allocated to each task. e.g. tab 1 would have Employee X and the pie chart would show what percentage of this employee's hours was dedicated to project/demo/admin/etc...
What I'm doing wrong with the chart in the attached DB? I need just one chart for each team but I'm getting 5 times as many charts as I want.

My query has the fields setup ID, Date, Session, Value.In a report I am trying to create a bar chart that shows session names on the y axis and values along the x axis. I want to show 1 chart per ID.However, when I run chart wizard and create my chart I am getting charts for each ID repeating by the number of sessions (number of records in my query).So for example with 3 sessions im getting:
ID: 1 - Chart
ID: 1 - Chart
ID: 1 - Chart
ID: 2 - Chart
ID: 2 - Chart
ID: 2 - Chart
ID: 3 - Chart

Where the chart is setup the way I want it, but it repeats for each session.how I can get the report to show 1 chart per ID?I tried grouping by ID but didn't seem to work
I am working on a project that is requiring me to hide a subreport that happens to be chart graph, when the chart has no data and my problem is that I cannot seem to get the report to properly hide and show the label behind it when the data is not there. I am in need of a SQL code that will read my blank record source as a zero instead of blank. I have tried Nz, IsEmpty, and IsNull and none of them seem to work.Here is the current SQL code:
SELECT DISTINCTROW Sum(Case_review.ID) AS SumOfID
FROM Case_review
WHERE (((Case_review.[Type of Issue].Value)="Clinical"));
Here is the current VBA code (which is in event on load) for the main report:
If Me.Rpt_Clinical.Report.HasData = -1 Then
Me.Label29.Visible = False
Me.Rpt_Clinical.Visible = True
Else
Me.Label29.Visible = True
Me.Rpt_Clinical.Visible = False
Hi
I can do anything(design/edit/add new) to my table & queries but unable to redesign/edit my existing forms & reports, i wonder why?. My Database attributes is not "read only".
pls help.
thank a lot.
:rolleyes:
I created a database to set-up contracts, record receipt and issue of drawings and generate procurement schedules for construction projects. The database has been in use for over a year and I have only now encountered an unforeseen problem, the fix for which is beyond my skillset. I am unable to generate the reports as I have done for the other projects in the database.
The problem is in the Drawing Registers section. When the drawings are issued, I have to log the date they were received, the drawing number, drawing title, revision letter/number and note any changes on the current drawing. The drawing number is the Primary Key and is linked to several other tables, forms, reports, etc. The problem I have now encountered is that Architects arent that creative when numbering their drawings and tend to use the same numbering sequence for each job. So I can have several jobs with the drawing number A01. I have managed to still keep this field unique by adding a prefix (either a job number or an abbreviation for the job name). This way I am not changing the actual drawing number. However, on this current job the Architect is using the numbering sequence A1, A2, A3A25. Because he is using A1 and not A01, the drawing register reports are not sorting the drawings in the correct order and drawings A10 is listed after drawing A1 and A20 after drawing A2.
I found a round-about way of getting the drawings sorted by adding a second field. The primary key would be my version of the drawing number where I can enter it in a manner that the drawings will sort; the new field would be the actual drawing number as seen on the drawings. The reports would be sorted by my field but this field will not be visible on the reports.Is there another way to sort these records?
I am currently using access 2010 and I have been wrecking my brain to figure out how to display message in place of my charts when there is no data. Currently, whenever the chart has no data to display it just shows a white blank space. I would like to replace that with a message.
View 12 Replies View Relatedlinking a report and a subreport (chart). I have uploaded my sample DB. I'm trying to chart all the individuals and three fields for each Home. Both report and subreport are using the same query for the record source. My charts are blank "All_Homes_Individual_Totals". Just use date range 05/01/14, 06/24/14 on my Main form page for the data.
My second question is how would you create a chart to pull by each individual with their monthly totals per Home using "qry_Community_ Inclusion_ All_Homes" with a report and subreport (chart) as above. Report would show the individual's totals by month for each home.
When you create a column chart and then change one of the series to a line, how can you then apply formatting to that line? I've attached a stripped down database showing what I'm trying to do. Series 1 shows individual monthly values (percentages) and series 2 shows the target which is 80% for each month.
The problem is that although I can apply formatting to the column series, I can't see any way of selecting the line series so I can set the formatting I want. I'm using Access 2003, on Win XP Professional, in case that's important.
I have show results of scores on a graph but need to show if those scores fall below, in between or above acceptable limits. For example, lets say the acceptable range is between 10.5 and 15.6 but people can scores between 0 and 50. So what I need to do on a report chart/graph is show the actual scores in columns, let access automatically adjust the scale, but have the area between 10.5 and 15.6 on the scale highlighted or coloured or perhaps indicated by two horizontal lines across the chart/graph.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI can not get a line graph inserted into a report by using the Wizard. I have 2 columns of paired data that I want to graph. I dragged the 2 columns to the "Data" control in the wizard and changed summarizing for both columns from "sum" to "none".
When I look at the report in Print Preview, the data points are stacked vertically in the center of the graph and the "Series" box displays what looks like the data. If I add a Date/Time column as the X-axis, I am told that I have to summarize the data, something I don't want to do.
I've made various selections using the wizard and all fail.
How can I create a chart to be added to the last page of an access report to summarize all the data reported?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a popup form that prompts for a value and has a button defined with an OnClick,OpenReport with a WHERE clause. The value the user enters is placed in the WHERE clause.
The report is generated using a Query and the WHERE clause.
I was very surprised -- it works!
Now I'd like to add a chart to the report that represents the information on the report. How can I do this without calling the query again? Can I somehow reference the information that's in the report?
I am having an issue with viewing a report. I have a button set up to show the print preview of the report. There is a chart based on the report's record source, and two sub-reports showing related data. The print preview section however shows the the chart area where it would appear is blank, i.e. there is a white area where the chart should go. There is no error message. The two sub-reports appear correctly. If I go to print the report, however, the chart appears, and it will also appear if I change the view type (e.g. to layout and back again).

I have created a database that tracks production by individuals. I have also created a report which includes a pivot chart to give the user a chart view of production.
In the pivot filter of the chart I have associate names, where the user can click all, or individual associates, to see individual production.
The trouble I am having is when the user goes to print the chart, it will only print the chart with the "All" filter view. Even if the pivot chart is filtered to one associate, it will print like "All" was checked.
Is there a way to allow the report/pivot chart to only print the production for the individual who is checked within the pivot filter?
I've got a report, which on the screen is three chrts and a page break in between. Page is set up to print landscape.
When I print the report or save to pdf it adds a lot of pages in between 2 and 3. It seems to be of chart no.2 getting smaller and smaller. I've attached a copy of the pdf so you can see what I mean.
its doing this on all my reports.
I have a query that has a field that reads DateReceived By Month: Format$([Workorders].[DateReceived],'mmmm yyyy') The criteria line is Like "*" & [Enter Month & Year (Leave Blank for all)] & "*" And this works when I run the query. If I enter october 2013 it shows only records for this date range like it should.
Then I built a bar chart report that will show the workorders only for the month entered. The problem is, If I leave this field in my query the chart does not update . When I open the chart it will prompt for the month and year but the data in the bar chart doesnt change. If I remove this field the chart updates as expected.
If I go into design view for the report and then right click on the chart and go to properties , then to row source, it reads as this:
TRANSFORM Sum([Workorders Query2].MyTime) AS SumOfMyTime SELECT [Workorders Query2].SerialNumber FROM [Workorders Query2] GROUP BY [Workorders Query2].SerialNumber PIVOT [Workorders Query2].[MXDPrinter];
If I click on the elipstical to go into query tools for this line , and click on run I get the error : The microsoft Access database engine does not recognize '[Enter Month & Year (Leave Blank for All)]' as a valid field name or expression.
So my criteria runs normally in the query and returns the correct records, but I can't get it to work in the chart .
