Suppress Graph Datasheet Popup

Not really sure what you have done exactly as the graph does not show up at all.

I modified the one from yesterday a little - see attached.

When you change the result you will see the problem i have (datasheet annoyingly pops up)

the reason i am playing around with the format a little is because the message box is in an annoying place and when i enter yes i also get the focus stuck in the subform and i can't find any way to position the message box unless i make my own which seems a little stupid.

Hi Capricorn 1,

Could you also explain why you set the rowrource equal to itself?

Not sure what that is aiming to do.

Thanks

that is another way of (forcing) a requery of the graph.

i see but the graph no longer shows without clickin on it and off it again?

see if the Activate property of the graph is set on focus

The auto activate is set on getfocus but you commented out the requery in the on focus event , was that intentional?

yes

Hi Capricorn1,

I think there are now two issues with the script

1. the graph does not automatically display (white square)
2. when i force the graph to dispaly and update the result on the form, the subform updates but the graph does not refresh

previously...

1. the graph used to display automatically
2. the graph updated when the result was changed but the graphs datasheet displyed which was increbibly annoying

Thanks for your patience

sweetingA,
i  don't know what to say, it is working perfectly ok here, using  windows 7 ultimate, tested in A2007 and A2010

Hi Capricorn1,

I have tested it on another computer with XP and A2007.

Graph now displays but when i update the result the graph does still not update until i leave the record and re-enter the record.

Regards

you may need to save the record first

try adding

me.dirty=false 'add this line
me.graph1.setfocus

me.graph1.rowsource=me.graph1.rowsource

the test system i normally use is windows 7 and A2003 which highlights both issues

Hi Capricorn1,

The atatched code now works but only 1 very small annoyance.

Whe i update results, the datasheet for the graph flashes on the sceen for a moment while its being updated and then dissappears as i shift the focus.

I will award the points anyway for all your help but is there any chance to stop it flashing on the screen?

Thanks
