[AccessD] Changing Rowsource for Graph (Sproc source)

Hi David
I seem to recall having the same issue a long while ago. I was using queries
and ended up setting the graph's rowsource to a query but modifying the
query's SQL before opening the report. Not being an SQL kind of guy I don't
know how that translates when you have Sprocs, or if it can at all, but I'm
hoping that gives you a steer.
