NOTE It is recommended that before you paste your SQL statement into this box, that the statement be tested in the Run your own SQL Query page, to see if there is an error in the statement. If a faulty statement was entered, this will show you the error, which may be helpful in revising the statement. If a faulty statement is entered in the chart SQL query, you will see the chart displayed as "Sorry, there is no data to chart."
