ACC2000: Graph Object Appears Blank in Form View
This article was previously published under Q207756
Moderate: Requires basic macro, coding, and interoperability skills.
A Microsoft Graph object appears as empty or blank in Form view.
This behavior occurs if the
RowSource property of a graph object is
invalid.
To work around this behavior, use a valid setting in the
RowSource property of the graph object.
Steps to Reproduce Behavior
- Create a new form not based on any table or query.
- On the Insert menu, click Object. In the Object Type box, click Microsoft Graph 2000 Chart, and then click OK.
- Update the graph to Microsoft Access by clicking on the form's gray space away from the graph itself.
- Change the following properties of the graph object:
Object Frame:
RowSourceType: Value List
RowSource: Title;AAA;H1;H2;H3;1;2;3
ColumnCount: 3
- Open the form in Form view. Note that the graph appears blank because
the RowSource property only contains eight values while the ColumnCount is 3. To correct the graph, add another value to the RowSource property list.
For more information about graphs appearing dimmed, click
Microsoft Access Help on the
Help menu, type
Why does my graph appear dimmed in the Office Assistant or the Answer Wizard, and then click
Search to view the topic.
When the list of results appear click on "Troubleshoot Charts."

- Microsoft Access 2000 Standard Edition
