I am having a problem getting the chart to draw properly inside an MS Access report. I am using Access 2010 and TeeChart v8.0.1.1

I have taken over a project from a previous developer, and I am trying to learn how to use TeeChart. Here are some of the problems that I am having:

I have v8.0.1.1 installed on my machine, but some of the existing graphs in the program are an older version v4 I believe. When I try to open the forms/reports containing these older graphs I get an error saying that I do not have a license for the control. How do I access these older controls?

When I create a new graph on a report, the graph does not draw itself to the borders of the control. There seems to be a second border inside the control border and the graph draws to this inner border. How do I set the dimensions of this inner border? Searching through the forum, I found a reference to the frame. Is this inner border the frame?

When the graph is displayed on the report, part of the graph is beyond the edge of the control, and not displayed. As I scroll the report page, the graph also scrolls farther outside the edge of the control. How do I get the graph to draw correctly on the report page and not scroll outside of the control border?



Thank you
Brad

I'm afraid it's not possible to have two different TeeChart version in a same project. Note that all TeeChart versions use the same namespaces so they would conflict.

Can you see this problems in the Teedemo.mdb example shopped with the installation? It should be in your installation folder, into "\Examples\MSOffice\VBA Access".
If it only happens in a new application, could you please send it to us so we can reproduce the problem here?
Thanks in advance.

Does this mean that I have to go through my project and replace the graphs that already exist? Is there any way to do this and preserve the settings that were defined in the control and not code?

It does not happen in the Teedemo.mdb file. I have attached a sample project which replicates the problem.

Hello ronm,

TeeChart have a Tool to convert application in old TeechartActivex to a newest TeeChartActivex and I recommend you, use it. You can find the tool in TeeChart Pro v2011 ActiveX Control\Utilities.

It does not happen in the Teedemo.mdb file. I have attached a sample project which replicates the problem.

Thank you for the code. We can reproduce your problem and I have added it in bug list report with number[TA05015779]. We will be try to fix it for next maintenance releases of TeeChart.net.

Thanks,

Does the conversion tool work on MS Access VBA programs? I could only find tools for VB, VC++, and VS.Net.

How soon will you have a maintenance release for TeeChart v8? We need either a fix or a workaround ASAP.

Thanks
