[AccessD] Reference Material

Mark,

Another path you might consider is to use Excel with Automation.  Excel has
a world of statistical functions available.  

I would start by creating what you want in Excel using the worksheet
functions.  Then automate Excel from Access and place the functions you want
in the spreadsheet using code.  Then you can retrieve the value(s) you want
from that spreadsheet, then close Excel.  This lets Excel do the calculation
work instead of trying to do it in Access.

When you open Excel from Access, it will not be visible on screen (unless
you specify that it be visible).  So the user doesn't see any extraneous
screen activity.

Hope this helps,

PS - you can use MS Graph in Access reports in addition to Office Web
Components.

Group,

Can anyone suggest some reference material that discusses developing
sophisticated Access reports which will include statistical analysis and
graphing?
