Chart Data Type [message #148553] Mon, 27 March 2006 12:34 Go to next message

Sorry if this is outlined somewhere else but i can't seem to figure out why
this won't work.

I am attempting to make a simple pie chart, however, when I drop the data
column for the Category Definition I get the error:

"Unexpected non-numerical data type Accounting found in data
set; cannot convert to numeric value."

I have looked at my data and it is all numberic values that look like 12.0,
10.0, etc. Is there some option or switch I need to flip somewhere?

Thanks in advance,

Jonathon

The Value Series need to be numeric, maybe it's not a numeric datatype in
the db?

Thanks,

David

I am using the count() function so I am assuming that returns a numeric
datatype. If I go into Edit Data Set and go down to Output Columns it
shows the column as Type - Double.

Can you post some sample data and what values you input in the select data
tab of the chart builder?

Thanks,

David
