Suggestions about a graph control - Microsoft Access / VBA

Jeff

Does anyone have any suggestions about a good third party graph control. The
one in Access seems confusing to use.

Is there a control that could be said to be an industry standard?

I've used the MSGraph object and it does a half decent job. What is your
problems with it? (Benefit: it comes with Office and doesn't require
additional setup).

That is a great benefit and why I would prefer to stay with it. However, the
customer requested I make this enquiry after a couple of problems with
graphs over time.

A problem recently, and I posted this, is with the graph not setting the
minimum and maximum values correctly so the graph looked okay. Even though I
have this set to auto it doesn't change these so the graph is easier read.
By this I mean this graph has 4 series with value between 75 and 95. The
graph gets displayed with a minimum of 0 and a maximum of 100, what it sets
it to in design mode. The lines all get bunched together and it is hard to
distinguish each series. I can't set it to those values as sometimes the
range of values is different. It needs to deal with this automatically, but
doesn't.

I wanted to change this in code, once I determined the values, but can't
find a way to do that for an MDE.

This is in my other post 'Changing graph axis min max on report'.

MS Graph Completely Useless in A97?

by: David W. Fenton | last post by:

Is MS Graph really completely useless in Access 97? I uninstalled and re-installed to get the Office 97 version of MS Graph, but I see no way whatsoever to insert dynamic data into the chart. The wizard has got to be the worst wizard I've seen in Access, because it assumes way, way too much about what you want. And then when you click FINISHED, what you get has absolutely nothing to do with what you chose for the graph.

Obtaining the Python Control Flow Graph

by: brianlum | last post by:

Hi, I have been looking for a good way to convert python code into a control flow graph. I know of Python functions that will convert an expression into an abstract syntax tree (i.e. ast = parser.expr('(x+5)*5') then t = ast.totuple() then t), but I am not sure how to obtain a CFG. I've gone through the compiler and it has code that converts the AST

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not.
