All,
I realize this is perhaps not the correct forum for this question, but
it has proven difficult to find exactly the right forum. I have in the
past done some charting using VB from both Excel and Access. There are
plenty of examples and I found the process fairly straightforward. I am
now in the situation where I would like to program the MS Chart Control
from a Windows Form in the .NET environment using VC++. I cannot seem
to find any examples of how to use the MS Chart Control from a VC++
Windows Form. There are VB examples and this is usually enough to get
me started. But in this case I am a little stuck. Here is the best I
have been able to do so far after dragging the control onto my form:
axMSChart->set_TitleText(S"My Chart");
axMSChart->set_Width(200);
(and a couple of other simple minded things)
But all of the VB examples have enumerations that I cannot seem to
figure out the VC++ namespace for. Not to mention that the VB methods
do not exactly (or even closely) match the VC++ methods. I thought I
could just deduce everything from intellisense, but no such luck. Also,
the Datasource dropdown for the chart control does not offer any
choices eventhough I have a couple of datasets on the form.
Any suggestions (including where I should post this question) would be
greatly appreciated.
TIA,
Bill
