displaying counter variables in graphs

[skries]

Crystal 8.5 SQL Database

I am trying to do a line graph that I want to display a variable that is a counter.

I am counting the number of work orders grouped by type and time period and am using an incrementer for the purpose because the counter has to be in a group header/footer.

How do I display this value in the graph?

Any help in the right direction would be appreciated.

You can have a formula to be the X or Y axis of the Chart. Try in that angle and it may work out.

All the best.

Cheers,

Ravi

I don't follow you on that.

Why is it that functions that contain caluculated variables don't show as available data elements in the graphing expert field list?

I simply want to be able to show a variable on a graph.
