Question : PIE CHART PROBLEM IN MICROSOFT ACCESS

I have the need to show in a one page report each employees benefit breakdown (we want to show this in a chart).  The data is in Access.  here is the information

Name       type       Amount
AA           Salary     40,000
AA           Bonus     4,000
AA           HW          1,500
AA           Mantle      500
(all of the above should have AA on the top of the page then a pie chart showing a slice for each TYPE based on the size of the amount)  then next employee

Name       type       Amount
AB           Salary     36,000
AB          Bonus      3,000
AB           HW          1,500
AB           Mantle      400

NEXT EMPLOYEE, ETC.  

ONE TABLE EXISTS AND THE FIELD LISTINGS ARE:  NAMEID    NAME    BENEFITTYPE      AMOUNT

WHEN I GO INTO REPORT AND DO THE CHART i GET ONLY ONE SLICE WITH SAY BONUS

ANY IDEAS -- i CAN DO THIS ALL IN A PIVOT CHART - BUT THE CHART NEEDS TO GO INTO A REPORT

THANK YOU FOR TRYING.

I looked at the upload section of ee-stuff.com under this Q, and found the link:

the last upload I made:
http://www.ee-stuff.com/Expert/Upload/getFile.php?fid=2785

this has 2 tables, one for the PieChart data (same structure as your above) data,
the 2nd table contains the rest of the data, with any number of fields, including the [Name] field,
the relation field between the 2 tables is the [Name] field.

So based on this structure, you can make any type of Reports, including the type you uploaded,
if you need further help to get the Report the way you have, it,
please upload your mdb with a sample data.
