V 2.0

Richard-

How are we looking on version 2.0? Is it popular enough? If so, I've got a lot of ideas. I'm trying to build it out myself but I am slow and this is a big project for even you. So far I've only been able to adapt it to my own database and add a combo box to change the timeframe from days to weeks or months. I have a lot more that I want to do with it though.

It's on the list, but it's not extremely high up. However, it's definitely on there. I've got some things I want to add to it as well. Keep checking back, though. When I'm ready to start working on it again, I will put out a poll and send out an email to everyone who purchased Version 1 to see what features you'd like me to add. Based on that feedback, I'll make a roadmap for what I'm going to put in Version 2. Keep bugging me every month or two if you don't see any action on this, because it is something that I do want to build eventually.

I know it hasn't been a month yet, but I lack the virtue of patience. I've been working on figuring out how to do formatconditions with VBA instead of the native tool and it just took way too long to load whenever I changed the dates. Perhaps you'll have something that is a lot snappier. I went back to the native formatconditions tool and it's a lot better. I set up a temporary date table and set the "D" boxes control source to those dates. I then put all of the D boxes in an unlinked subform located in the same spot and was able to reference the D box dates from the parent form to set the format conditions. This way I could change the timeframe from days to weeks or months and the chart would change accordingly. I also added 12 more colors to the list. For my purposes I added a number to each box that represents the hours of labor for that timeframe and then it totals at the bottom. This will help us figure out when we might be in trouble trying to man our jobs. My next adventure will be to create an individual job schedule based on task codes I already have set up. Then, the hours for all tasks in a given day will also total at the bottom. That total will become the hour total in the box for the overall Jobs schedule. Here are some snapshots:
