Charts in a report

Hello,

I have a report with the cost of equipment in a line chart to graph those costs. The data is entered once per month and as long as I graph the data across the entirety of the table, the chart works as it should. If I add a between statement to the query upon which the chart is based, the chart will not display and the date for each piece of equipment is asked again and again until the report displays. Once the report displays, it does not show the data in the chart but does display the numerical information for the hard data. Anyone have any suggestions?
 
Share how "I add a between statement to the query". I doubt anyone can see
your application.

The between statement is for the date of service and with the wizard the
syntax is:

Between [Enter: Beginning Date] And [Enter: Ending Date]. The chart works
like it should until I narrow to a date range.
 
Abandon parameter prompt queries in favor of references to controls on
forms. I would not go any further until this has been created.

Duane,

Won't it be the same problem, though? Whether you do it in a form or a
query, the date data will still need to be filtered across the desired
range.

All of your record sources and rowsources can reference the same controls on
your form. You would avoid all the prompting.
