I'm trying to automate a table from Access to Excel and generate a line chart
in Excel. I have 3 attributes; Week, Target and Actual. Initially 'Week' was a Number type and the automation worked perfectly fine. But recently, I changed 'Week' to Text type and errors occur. First, VBA keeps showing Run-time error '1004': Method 'SeriesCollection' of object '_Chart' failed. When I press Debug, the line that generated the error is: ..ActiveChart.SeriesCollection(2).XValues = "='Project Summary Report'!Week" and I don't understand why. Can anyone help? Secondly, the dynamic range that I've defined keeps plotting only 'Actual' against 'Week'. What I want to achieve is plotting 'Actual' and 'Target' against 'Week' to see comparison between 'Target' and 'Actual'. So I ended up having to right-click to see the Source Data and found out that the data range excluded the 'Target' column. i.e. ='Project Summary Report'!$A$1:$A$14,'Project Summary Report'!$C$1:$C$14 so I changed the comma in the middle, to a colon, the graph can then be correctly plotted. Can anyone tell me why? Thirdly, I want to place the chart on the same worksheet. Like I've mentioned, when 'Week' was a Number type, the chart could be correctly generated on the same worksheet. But now, the chart is on a different worksheet from the table where its source data comes from. Can anyone help to solve this problem? Million thanks for anyone who can help. |
