    Nneed to know which form, table or graph to use in my situation

    I'm so new to Access 2010 and I haven't been able to find a manual at my library.

    Simple enough; I have to make an apparatus that will list board members with the years they've served which will subsequently show when there might have been years of vacancy when no member was appointed. This can be a bar type graph or any horizontal report that will show this and be easy to understand.



    I see where I can make forms, databases but am unsure which would show what I need.

    Thank you so much in advance!

    You are talking about displaying data that doesn't exist. If there are no board member records for 2002 then there is no data to output for that year. The report output will just list 2001 followed by 2003. Reading the report will reveal gap in year sequence because is not represented with data. If you want to actually show the year with blank row, one approach is to have a dataset of all years - a table that has a record for each year - and join the other table to this Years table, join type 'Include all records from Years ...", linking on year values.
