Cumulative Percent (2003)

[billknecht2006]

I have followed the parteo chart tutorial. I am now running into a problem: when I have two columns with the same number they are making the cumulative percent the same for both columns.

Issue Type NumberOfErrorsTotal CumPct
Portfolio Fees 2 36.36%
Fund Closing 2 36.36%
Transfers 1 100.00%
Purchases 1 100.00%
Fund Express/SPR 1 100.00%
Exchanges 1 100.00%
Custodial Fees 1 100.00%
Contributions 1 100.00%
AIPPad 1 100.00%

The columns looks like this:

Issue Type
NumberOfErrorsTotal: Number of Errors
CumPct: DSum("[Number of Errors]","[1ErrorType - Client Issue]","[Number of Errors]>=" & [NumberOfErrorsTotal] & "")/DSum("[Number of Errors]","1ErrorType - Client Issue")

There may be a cleverer way to do this, but I'd use a temporary table. See the attached demo.

Before running the report, first run the delete query to clear the temporary table, then the append query to populate it with up-to-date data.
The select query uses the AutoNumber field in the temporary table to calculate the cumulative sum/percentage the way you want.
