Hello,
I am about to start a project where I must link an Access front-end database to an Oracle backend. I have about a year of Access development behind me now, and now here is the next challenge.
What I have to do is create analyses of data and output the data mainly in the form of diagrams (i.e. graphs or charts). I have seen how this can be done with Automation in Access in a book by Alison Balter (Mastering Access 2000 Development), by controlling the Excel object etc.
Here are my 2 questions:
1. I am considering buying another book on Access now, something that will contain more examples/methods for presenting information as a graph with the help of Excel. Should I stick to buying an Access book, or should I look into getting something that is more Excel programming oriented, i.e. something like an “Excel programmers compendium”? Any recommendations/tips to get me started would be appreciated.
2. The users want the graphs that I produce to be saved as a .PDF automatically at the push of a button in the Access GUI. How is this done? Do I need special software, or can I use something like PDFWriter to automatically convert the Excel graphs into .PDF’s?
Thanks in advance for the tips and have a nice day! :)

Is it possible to create a line or bar graph as a report in Access 2007?
If so, how would you go about it?
I have created a table in Access with the data I need to put into a line graph.
The data is in this format:
[Table]....
This just a snapshot of the data. What i would like to do is produce seperate line graphs for each town, charting the temperatures over the three years. Because there is so much data i need to find a way which can produce graphs on mass.
I am not sure where to post this so could someone please move it to the appropriate area thanks.
I want to make a graph that will show how many employees are in the company for each year (Going back 10 years and keeping up to date) I have never done this before and our teacher feels that its best if we learn on our own (basicaly he's an idiot).
How do I go about using the pivot chart?
I have made a query which adds up the total number of employees at the current time.. but apart from that I havent a clue. I want the graph to have the years on the bottom and numbers up the side (1,2,3,4,5 etc) and then the number of employees that were in the company during that year will be plotted.
I will use a table that is to be used for archiving to mke the query as it will have all the employees who were ever in the system record.
The table is thus:
Employee_ID
Emp_First_Name
Emp_Surname
Age
Emp_Home_Number
Emp_Mobile_Number
Emp_Address_1
(so on and including postcode)
Date_Started
Position_ID
I have no idea what to do other than to rename the axes and change the increments, but they are jsut numbers, no dates or anything.
Any help apreciated.
Hi All,
This is a simple problem i think....but am struggling to find a variable to change!.
The problem is that i have a chart on a form, but the chart is replicated 22 times (i.e 22 charts on seperate pages)...there should only be 1!
I have 22 variables on the X-Axis...so am presuming it is linked to that somehow. am also graphing off a crosstab.
I am still searching for a solution myself...but thought i'd ask in here incase anyone has any ideas/experience of this problem!
Thanks!
I am a bit of a db virgin! So I would appreciate some assistance please.
I am trying to display a graph in the form view of a db.
The db is comprised of a standard form and table set up but the data comes from a series of linked excel spreadsheets.
Basically it is a way of displaying student data for parents evenings at school and I would like a graph to make it the data more visual.
can anyone help?
I have some machine data to display showing running speeds. This is logged every minute when the machine is running but not when stopped.
how do I display a bar graph with a timescale along the bottom of minutes showing gaps when the mchine is down. :confused:
I do not know why this has been so difficult. I have search google and even this forum. There is no clear cut explanation on how to build a button on a form to export a pivotchart to a jpg. Does anyone know how this can be done. please show code.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a number of deliverables and want to create a graph for each one,
I can get a list of deliverable via a select statement but not sure how to create a graph from that
For example I have this sql statement as the row source for a graph
Code:SELECT Team.TeamLeadName AS Expr1, FormatPercent(Avg(RawData.PercentComplete)) AS CurrentProgressFROM Team, RawDataWHERE (((RawData.TeamLeadNumber)=[Team].[TeamLeadNumber]) AND ((RawData.DeliverableDesc)="RACE Off-the-runs v1"))GROUP BY Team.TeamLeadName;
"RACE Off-the-runs v1" is a deliverable
I had the idea of taking the list of deliverables and iterating through them, for each iteration set the row source for a graph as
Code:SELECT Team.TeamLeadName AS Expr1, FormatPercent(Avg(RawData.PercentComplete)) AS CurrentProgressFROM Team, RawDataWHERE (((RawData.TeamLeadNumber)=[Team].[TeamLeadNumber]) AND ((RawData.DeliverableDesc)="deliverableNAME"))GROUP BY Team.TeamLeadName; where deliverableNAME = the current deliverable in the iteration
The problem is
1)I’m not sure if/how to set the row source with a variable (in this case the variable is deliverableNAME)
2)How would I make sure that each iteration its creating a new graph, rather then just overwriting the existing one. Basically how to have each iteration create a new graph.
3)How would I store these graphs, each one on its own form, can they all be on one form (access seems to limit the height a form to 22 inches)
Hi all,
New user here so apologies if I post in the wrong place.
My colleague and I are trying to put together a database which automates a very time consuming process which is currently being done in Excel.
The purpose of the database is to pull together a load of actuals from SAP and then the forecasts we have put together and then chuck out a whole load of graphs and a summary spreadsheet/ report for the upper echelons;ons of management.
The data is in the database and so far it is all going well - but we have hit a stumbling block. We need Access to calculate some cumulative totals so that we can throw the whole lot into our excel graphs but we can't figure out how to do it.
We are using ye olde Access 97 so our options are a little limited.
Can anyone give us a starter for 10? If you need anything more technical, I can post whatever information you need.
Thanks

My database records order details for analysis. I have created a form to monitor individual trends in orders placed by my customers. As we supply bespoke items each customer has a list of products which they alone purchase, i.e we do not supply stock items, each item is specifically for one customer (they can then buy the items on a regular basis). The products are assigned to a customer in the products table.
The Analysis form I have created displays the customers name and two graphs. The first graph shows total sales each month, this graph updates as I navigate through the records (i.e. a different graph is loaded for each customer). The form also contains another graph, this is where the problem lies! This graph shows orders of the individual products, controlled by a drop down list containing all the products we supply. I need to limit this list to only show those products relevant to the current customer select on the form. (The products are assigned to a customer in my products table). Currently I achieve this by using a query which when the form is opened asks me to enter a customer ID, the drop down list is then limited to the products supplied to that customer.
What I would like is for the drop down list to update as I navigate through the records. i.e. when customer A is displayed show all the products assigned to customer A, when customer B is displayed show all the products assigned to customer B.
I’ve attached a snapshot of the form to help explain what I mean.
Thanks for any suggestions.
i have a graph in access, and when i print it on a laserjet printer, all of the data and text prints. When i print the graph on a inkjet, only the text prints...not the graph. How do i solve this?

eg i have created a bar graph and on each bar would like the value shown on the top of it
Using Access 2010 32-bit. I have a report that contains a Graph Chart (class = MSGraph.Chart.8). The reports works fine using the uncompiled .accdb. When I compile to .accde, the report is not rendered...I get an empty report screen as though Access is going to produce the report and nothing happens. I have to terminate Access using the "X" at the top right.

Hello,
I have installed Microsoft Access 2003 and Microsoft Access 2003 Developer Extensions. I can create Access application by using the Package Wizard.
But after I upgrade from Microsoft Access 2003 to Microsoft Access 2007.
I can't use the Package Wizard.
How can I do to solve this?
Thanks.
Hi,
I have been using "fSetAccessWindow (SW_HIDDEN)" in the open event of my
main switchboard to hide the grey Access screen from being visible behind
forms, reports, etc in this db. But when I started using a .vbs script file
to launch the db, the Access window stopped being hidden. (The reason I use
the script for launching is that it temporarily sets the db's security level
to 1 which stops the macro security warning from coming up.) Apparently MS
knows about this happening and released a technique to rectify the situation,
but I don't understand their instructions. It looks like they expect one to
have more understanding than I have. Could someone help me get this
impliemented? Here is the article:

Using Access's User and Group Accounts or Using a Login Form to access database?
I've been researching on how to make a database secure. How to create User and Group Accounts on access, I see the step by step instructions and tried it out myself.
I also saw some sites where they give an example of a Login Form and how to create one.
My question is do you need to create both. First create the users and groups to permit or deny access to certain forms and then have a login form?
But would that mean that they'd have to login twice? Once when the database opens because it activates the db security that was created and then login again in the login form that was created?
Also when the user logins in and clicks on the cmd button on the form which opens up another from, frmWorkLog, I have an Employee field. This field I want it to have the user's name entered automatically and "locked". So that info, employee name, is extracted from the user's login. So then the user can only see his or her records only and no one elses.
How would I go about creating that. Hope I made my explanation clear.
Thanks in advance.
I have two database applications and they are:
- the (A) application is for administration use.
- the (B) application is for normal users use.
the idea is that: I made the (A) application for administrators who have full control over the database objects (tables, forms, queries, and so on ...).
the (B) application I have created for normal users who will have only to use forms to insert some data and display data only.
but the two applications has a respective table called "vacation request" table. where I linked them, so the both administrators and users can share the data.
The real question is that: How can I prevent the users from seeing the database objects in their application. I used the database options which have helped me in hidding the database objectives when the users open the application, but unfortunately they managed to access to the database objects by pressing the special keys.
I would like to have an access to the (B) application when I want to make some modifications to the forms and then lock it from users where they only have to use the forms for requesting vacations and view the vacations.
I have a simple access search form , that's based on a query that fill parameters from the form textboxes, when the access form loads its keeps prompting for parameters value which looks ugly .. I want to open the form, displaying all the records in the table and filter when i click search ..
I have a data entry entry form, that i want to generate success message after successful insert in database. I have done it in the button event if no error happens, still if i left all fields blank and clicked save, it displays the message ..
I need to change that to display please fill the textboxes then click save , and display success message when the row is actually inserted ..
Check the following attachment for sample.
I've been using the following code successfully in Access 2003 & now I need to migrate to Access 2010. The purpose of the code is to use the items that the user selects in the list box to build the criteria of a query. Access 2010 keeps giving me a syntax error when I try to run the query & I don't know why:
My code is:
On Error GoTo Err_Command151_Click
' Declare variables
Dim db As DAO.Database
Dim qdf As DAO.QueryDef
Dim varItem As Variant
Dim strCriteria As String
Dim strSQL As String
[Code] .....
The syntax error I get in Access 2010 is:
Syntax Error in query expression 'SELECT * FROM
qryContractListSummarybyDateContract3TYPEBREAK WHERE
qryContractListSummarybyDateContract3TYPEBREAK.Rep ortableName IN('Adbri
Masonry NSW');'
Attached is a screenshot of the relationships in a database I built a couple of years ago. It's worked absolutely fine in Access 2003 and currently has over 18,000 customers with associated information in it.
However, when I open the database in Access 2007 the performance is awful. All the forms are very slow to respond when tabbing between form elements. I've experimented by reducing the number of form elements calling on related data on a given page and whilst this improves performance it reduces usability - something I don't want to compromise on especially since Access 2007 should be able to cope with this.
My next question is therefore whether I've got the most efficient underlying table design and I can't see any other way of doing it than my current method so I'd be grateful for any feedback or advice anyone has.
I have a stock control database which i have nearly completed. This has Manufacturer, which is linked to products, which is linked to Sub Product(which also has field partCode). i.e. Manufacturer1 can have 3 products, and each of these products could have 5 subsystems and partcodes. Each partcode is unique to that subsystem/product/manufacturer.
I then have a pricing spreadsheet in excel, which has many tabs. A new column has been added for each item for Manufacturer,Product,Subsystem and Partcode.
I need to import these manufacturers,products,subsystems and partcodes, but into the tables with the correct relationships, i.e. product1 and product2 are products of manufacturer1 and so cannot come under manufacturer2, and so on.
I hope this makes sense, Thanks in advance for any help you can give!

I am working on a massave aplication that has been running in Access 2000, but recently several of the file sharing users have installed Access 2003 because of the limited availability of Access 2000. All the users are using the same file off the server.
The problem we are having is that when we reference a subform in the "[Forms]![FormName]![SubformName]![FeildName]" Access 2003 does not recognize it and returns an error. I have found that if I will modify it to "[Forms]![FormName]![SubformName].[Form]![FeildName]" it is recognized in both 2000 and 2003.
To try and change every instance of a subform reference will take forever and I am garuteed to overlook something. We reference subforms all over our program, missing any one of them would be a disaster. Before I went to the tedious task of looking through everything I just wanted to throw the situation out there and see if any of you had any great ideas on how to get it fixed efficiently. I would apreciate any ideas.
