I have a main form with listboxes and a button that collects the filter of what the end-user puts in and I can export a report or my subform pivot. Doing them separate the filters are fine and it all works. However I want to embed the pivot into the footer and have it all work properly but it does not. The report works great but the graph does not update. Can someone help me out???? The end-users want the graph to show up in the report. Here is my code:
Option Compare Database
Option Explicit
Private Sub cmdReport_Click()
DoCmd.OpenReport "Report1", acViewReport, , GetFilterFromListBoxes
DoCmd.OpenForm "Graph1", acFormPivotChart, , GetFilterFromListBoxes
End Sub
Private Sub cmdReset_Click()
Dim ctrl As Access.Control
Dim itm As Variant
For Each ctrl In Me.Controls
If ctrl.ControlType = acListBox Then
If ctrl.MultiSelect = 0 Then
ctrl = Null
Else
For Each itm In ctrl.ItemsSelected
ctrl.Selected(itm) = False
Next
End If
End If
Next ctrl
Me.Filter = ""
Me.FilterOn = False
End Sub
Private Sub cmdResults_Click()
Dim formfilter As String
formfilter = GetFilterFromListBoxes
Debug.Print formfilter
Me.FilterOn = False
Me.Filter = formfilter
Me.FilterOn = True
End Sub
Public Function GetFilterFromListBoxes() As String
Dim lst As Access.ListBox
Dim ctrl As Access.Control
Dim fieldName As String
Dim fieldType As String
Dim TotalFilter As String
Dim ListFilter As String
Dim itm As Variant
'Each listbox needs a tag property with the field name and the field type
'Seperate these with a ;
'The types are Text, Numeric, or Date
For Each ctrl In Me.Controls
If ctrl.ControlType = acListBox Then
fieldName = Split(ctrl.tag, ";")(0)
fieldType = Split(ctrl.tag, ";")(1)
For Each itm In ctrl.ItemsSelected
If ListFilter = "" Then
ListFilter = GetProperType(ctrl.ItemData(itm), fieldType)
Else
ListFilter = ListFilter & "," & GetProperType(ctrl.ItemData(itm), fieldType)
End If
Next itm
If Not ListFilter = "" Then
ListFilter = fieldName & " IN (" & ListFilter & ")"
End If
If TotalFilter = "" And ListFilter <> "" Then
TotalFilter = ListFilter
ElseIf TotalFilter <> "" And ListFilter <> "" Then
TotalFilter = TotalFilter & " AND " & ListFilter
End If
ListFilter = ""
End If
Next ctrl
GetFilterFromListBoxes = TotalFilter
End Function

If fieldType = "Text" Then
GetProperType = sqlTxt(varItem)
ElseIf fieldType = "Date" Then
GetProperType = SQLDate(varItem)
Else

End If
End Function
