    Lining Up 2 Axis

    i think you just need to subtract max from min of your right axis, and then divide that number by the number of intervals on your left axis. 6600/12=550. then use 550 as your major unit on the right axis. i work(ed) in government / market research, i am good at manipulating graphs.. good...

    hi. i finally finished - with the help of the forum's own great pbaldy - the query that i was going to use as the data feed for my Excel 2007 pivot table. everything seemed to be working initially - i insert the pivot table, find my query in the 'External Connection...' dialog, the "Reading...

    Sequential Counter by Category Field

    no, it's not for a report, it's for Excel pivot table(s), so i think i am stuck with this design. which in my case is not too bad if the variables involved are indexed, i tested before.. thanks again, l

    Sequential Counter by Category Field

    worked like a charm! the second one, since Prop ID is text indeed, and also with '>' instead of '<' since the latest dates should be labeled with '1', second latest - '2', etc. thanks Paul, this is so great.. now i just need to figure out what's actually going on in this DCount statement, and...

    Sequential Counter by Category Field

    thanks Paul. i still can't wrap my mind around this DCount business. just not enough brain cells / connections, looks like.. so the criteria for 'Date' could be - In (SELECT Top 3 date FROM InspectionMainSm as t WHERE t.[Prop ID]=InspectionMainSm.[Prop ID] ORDER BY t.[Prop ID], t.date DESC)...

    Sequential Counter by Category Field

    Can't make "Selection.Subtotal..." dynamic

    Brian, i am so sorry i was mia for a while - just got too busy, excuses excuses.. and i feel double-guilty now - the macro works, without me doing much - i copy-pasted some pieces of code back and forth after reading this just now, and it clicked. not sure what the problem was either, i...

    Can't make "Selection.Subtotal..." dynamic

    i am sorry, i didn't mean to use the reserved word, i just put it here because it is a meaningful name for this variable. in actuality, i used something like "wdth", or "wd" as that variable name, so the code is wd = WorksheetFunction.CountA(Range("1:1")) Selection.Subtotal GroupBy:=2...

    Creating Form with Multiple Entries

    i feel like i am nagging at this point, but i still can't figure out this form. Big Pat, your form from the 'attendances' database is perfect, it's exactly how i want it to look. but it doesn't change the dates in the rows when you change it up top, and it doesn't append the new attendance...

    Transform Access to Excel Like Pivot

    did you figure it out? if not, maybe post an excel worksheet, or a picture of one, showing exactly what you want to happen in the end. it's a bit hard to understand with all the columns misaligned..
