    Scatter Charts

    Is it possible to build a chart where you supply the X & Y Co-ordinates and
    have the data displayed at that point.

    To clarify:- Suppose we have a cemetary (Scatter seems inapproporiate here)
    and have the X & Y co-ordinates of each grave. I want to display the name of
    the corpse in the correct position

    Morbid?

    Actually it is boats in a boat compound.

    Thanks

    Phil

    Hi Phil,

    How about a form based on a crosstab query where the column is the X
    coordinate, the row is the Y coordinate and the value is the name on the
    headstone.
