can't you do the graph on the column of figures and do a stack graph? That'll look like a running sum without calculating.

ok do you have in one field a date? is that your x-axis? i'll assume so and continue.

say you have a table Table1 with

ThingsDate Things

where Things is a number.

make a query.
bring down ThingsDate.
in the second column, put this
Code: 
RunningSum: DSum(&quot;Things&quot;,&quot;Table1&quot;,&quot;[ThingsDate]<=#&quot; & [ThingsDate] & &quot;#&quot;)

ok?
