Duane,
I am very confused ;(
(1) What do you mean by "The report fields don't mean anything?"
(2) When I use the chart wizard, I can only choose up to 6 fields that
contain the data I want. This does not work for me because I need to plot 2
years of data (8 quarters) plus the staff component field.
(3) The chart is in a report. The report pulls data from a regular query
(not cross tab). Does this make a difference?
(4) Plotting the data in Excel is so simple but I can find hardly any
references on the web to help me with this.
(5) I could not find a property that will determine if data is displayed
horizontally or vertically.
(6)I took a stab at changing the row source property, but my SQL abilities
are not good enough.
(7) Please be advised that in my example below, the data format refers to a
report.
If I need to elaborate on anything, just let me know. This line chart is my
nemesis and it's all I want for Christmas!
