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 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.
is it possible to place a graph from Excel in an Access report? instead of using the Access pivot charts?
Thanks
Kevin
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 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?

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! :)

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.

Where can I find the Hex or RGB value for the blue colour that Access 2010 uses by default for buttons on forms? I need to change some buttons to yellow (I know the code for that) but later change them back to the previous shade of blue, which is shown in the Properties pane "Accent 1, Lighter 40%".
By clicking in the standard colors area at the bottom of the colour chooser I can find a very similar blue #D6DFEC but it doesn't look quite right. And the "accent" colour does not give me a Hex value.Is that "usual" blue even one colour? How can I reset a button to that style having changed it?
I have a bit of a problem with a database in Access 2013. On 1 of the forms, I have a number of buttons which open other forms and filter the results using an embedded macro. All has been well until a few days ago when error 2950 pop up box started appearing. After fiddling around for a while it all works OK (without actually changing anything) until next time the database is opened. I checked to make sure the location is "trusted" and all seems OK.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a bound continuous tabular form,However, based on data content in one field of a record, I want a checkbox in the same record enabled, so the user can check it if necessary. I have created a record set using the form as shown below, and I am looping through each record. To show that my code is referring to the field with required data content, I display it as a message box and it works, yet my checkbox does not enable.
I have the code in the form_load event, however, for testing purposes I have it behind a button.If I am seeing this properly, the code behind the button enables the checkbox for ALL records once the criteria in the required field is true, and based on the last record, which has no data content, it disables the checkbox in ALL records. I also have the PK ID for each record hidden in the form. Can I utilize that to target the checkbox of each individual record??
Form Detail
-Form does not allow additions or deletions. Edits allowed
-All fields are disabled and locked
-I only want the check box to unlock if data is found in the "RequiredField" as referred to below. I have also tried if not isNull(requiredfield.value) then -enable checkbox, which yields the same results
Here is my code
Code:
Dim rstMyForm As DAO.Recordset
Set rstMyForm = Forms!MyForm.Form.Recordset
rstMyForm.MoveFirst
Do While Not rstMyForm.EOF
If Not RequiredField.Value = "" Then

I have created a table for installer invoicing, and have a field for invoice amount. I have created a user input form that allows a user to fill in certain pay rates for different aspects of installation, and would like to know how to make the invoice amount a calculated control that will auto update the field InvoiceAmt in my table. I can't figure out how to do this in the property sheet.
View 3 Replies View RelatedIn the default property of a subform control I want to use a control of the main form without using names of forms, but using me and parent.
I used in default property of cboVATDetail: =Me.Parent!cboVAT, but it is not accepted. My aim is to use cboVAT of parent as default in cboVATDetail of child.
I have a listbox on a subform (or a subform within a subform).
When it is clicked I want all other listboxes to unselect.
There may be listboxes on the mainform, on other subforms, on other subforms of subforms.
I imagine I'm looking at a recursive function of some sort, but I'm not entirely sure of syntax to identify parent and children forms...
pseudocode so far:
loop all controls
if control = listbox, unselect all
if control = subform - recurse: loop all subform controls
if control = parent... err... Fail.
Making a small database, Got 1 Table.
1. ContactDetailTable
Got 3 forms.
1. ContactIDForm
2. ContactInfoForm
3. NewContactFrom
In ContactIDForm it contain 1 textbox name 'TextBox' with Button Name 'Btn'
In ContactIDForm there is only 1 Text Box ContactIDTextBox and 1 Button. User Enters ID in TextBox and On Button Click Event it should check data from TextBox in Table name (ContactDetailTable) in field ContactID and if there is record matching, ContactInfoForm should Open else NewContactForm should open with ContactIDTextBox value in it.
I am building a very comprehensive Membership Management Database with extremely useful facilities initiated by some 20 or 25 Queries..
The database includes 5 Tables which store data relevant to members, another which stores details of Interest Groups and a 3rd which stores which members are affiliated to which Group or Groups.
Currently the database is accessible only by a very limited number of persons and data can be entered/edited by only one person. The database, using Access 2010, is maintained on a desktop computer and synchronized to a copy on a Cloud.
My requirement is to permit some 50 Group Leaders to input/edit data on a Password protected Group Members Form such that that is the only element of the database that they can access. The Forms would have only 2 fields from which the user would select entries from drop down lists.
My query is ; is such a procedure feasible in principle and would I be correct in assuming that the user would require to have available a copy of Access.
I need to pull the calculated values from approximately 10 forms into another form. This is a summary form that should have all the totals pulled from the other forms.e.g. Form A has a textbox that reflects the sum of the amount. This is the total balance of form A.Form B, Form C, etc. all have a total Balance.Now, i need to pull all these totals into a summary form
-Form A Total Balance: x
-Form B Total balance: y, and so forth.
How and what is the best method to approach?I have tried using Forms![Formname]![Total] to get the data. This necessitates the need to hide all these forms and I ended up with blank forms, etc.Even so, the total sometimes appear and sometimes it does not. so it is very unstable.
I have a form "NewMetalF" that has three combo boxes. The first one is used to choose "Precious Metal" or "Base Metal". The second one shows all the metals based on the first combo box. When I open the form in form view alone the combo boxes work flawlessly. I run the form "NewMetalF" within another form "NewExternalPartF" by clicking a button "AddMetal". When the button is clicked "NewMetalF" opens. The first combo box is selected, and when the second combo box is clicked the error "Enter Paramater Value" "Forms!NewMetalF!cboPreciousOrBase".
