    Scatter Chart

    Good evening everybody,



    As usual no problem with excel always having a critical problem with access,

    I have built a scatter chart with excel and I was trying to build it in access as well but I failed, 08 working hours trying to sort it out, again please help.

    Kindly see attached Excel and Access samples,

    Thank you in advance.

    What I accomplished:

    Added another field to the table, called Item, entered value of 1 for all records.

    Created a new graph with wizard, let it create a bar chart with one series (Item field).

    The chart RowSource query it created is:
    TRANSFORM Sum([Inspection Rate]) AS [SumOfInspection Rate] SELECT [Maintenance Rate] FROM [tbl - Maintenance And Inspection Rate] GROUP BY [Maintenance Rate] PIVOT [Item];

    Changed the chart to an XY Scatter.

    Then I changed the RowSource to:
    SELECT [Inspection Rate], [Maintenance Rate] FROM [tbl - Maintenance And Inspection Rate];

    Removed the legend, resized chart area, other formatting as desired.

    Opened report in Layout View, saved, closed, opened in design view and new settings are displayed.

    I know, roundabout way but seems to get it done.
