    Putting the legend where I want it

    In the tutorial whose link I have shown below:

    http://www.functionx.com/access/Lesson33.htm

    The graphs that I create from the tutorial always have the legend on the right side.

    I would rather have the legend running along the bottom of the graph. I have two questions :

    1. The graphs that I have already created, how can I get the legend to move down to the bottom of the graph? What command can I use?
    2. When creating new graphs how do I make the legend go on the bottom of the graph and not the right side.

    Any help appreciated. thanks in advance.

    Respectfully,




    Lou Reed

    Editing graph properties can be tricky. Open the form or report in design view and double click on chart then right click (without clicking on any grid or axis lines or labels) > Chart Options > Legend > select position of legend.

    Okay, this is how to move the legend after the fact. I want to know also how to make sure the legend is along the
    bottom of the graph when I initially create it. It there a way to do that?

    Thanks in advance.

    Not that I know of. I always have to fix graphs after they are created.
