Help to pick constant color to a value in a Pie Chart?
I have a Pie Chart with 2 items only (R or P). R is a dark color and P is a
light color. When There isn't any P in my data, the chart picks the light color for R. I would like to always have a dark color for R and a light color or P. I am doing the chart in MS Access 2000-03 and my row source is: SELECT [RP],Sum([Freq]) AS [SumOfFreq] FROM [Rept#704_Joint_RP] GROUP BY [RP]; Can someone please help me. Thanks, Gary |

Help to pick constant color to a value in a Pie Chart?
Are you familary with MS Access charts or graphs?? It is almost almost the
same as excel charts. Actually, Access charts is a subset of Excel charts. Still hope someone could provide information. Thank You, "Luke M" wrote: I'm afriad this is the MS Excel Chart forum.

Help to pick constant color to a value in a Pie Chart?
In Excel if you have a series for P and a series for R, if there is no data
in the P series it doesn't change the colour for the R series, so if Access is the same as Excel you don't have a problem. -- David Biddulph "Gary" wrote in message ...

Help to pick constant color to a value in a Pie Chart?
Originally I was looking at a multi-series chart of other types, but the
same applies for points in a series on a pie chart. If you remove the data for the first point, it doesn't change the colour for the second point. -- David Biddulph "David Biddulph" groups [at] biddulph.org.uk wrote in message ...

This is true if the data is missing but the category is present. If you run a query, though, the category doesn't come through if there is no data. - Jon ------- Jon Peltier Peltier Technical Services, Inc. http://peltiertech.com/ David Biddulph wrote: Originally I was looking at a multi-series chart of other types, but the same applies for points in a series on a pie chart.

Help to pick constant color to a value in a Pie Chart?

One important difference is that Excel charts are built in Excel workbooks, where you have the ability to manipulate the data with worksheet formulas and plot the manipulated data. I've never thrown VBA at an Access chart. If you're willing to experiment, you could try to adapt one of the Excel techniques I've posted in my blog. This one in particular: VBA Conditional Formatting of Charts by Category Label http://peltiertech.com/WordPress/vba...ategory-label/ - Jon ------- Jon Peltier Peltier Technical Services, Inc. http://peltiertech.com/ Gary wrote: Are you familary with MS Access charts or graphs??
