What is the Plan?

The data analysis will be done with two different approaches: a Crosstab Query that creates a Table array of numbers and a PivotChart that visualizes the same information as a graph.

 

Create a Crosstab Query: tblMovies_Crosstab

Review the Record Source: tblMovies.

Create a Crosstab Query with the Wizard.

Select Genre for the Row Headings.

Select Rating for the Column Headings.

Create a PivotChart Form:
MoviesByRatingChart

Create aPivotChart based on tblMovies.

 

Add a PivotChart to the Movies by Genre Report

Modify the Report Header of an existing Report, .

Add the PivotChart to the Report Header as an Unbound Subform/Subreport.

 

When the Report is in Print Preview, we will practice exporting the data into several file formats that can be shared and sent by E-mail.

 

So, will that work? Let's find out.
