Charting options, commercial ISP

I want to include charts on my site that will be hosted by a commercial ISP.
I've tried the Crystal Reports that comes in Visual Studio.NET, but
commercial ISPs either do no allow it or want $40 per month to host it as
"third party components". That is pretty steep when you are only paying $25
per month for the hosting.

Are there any cheeper options that won't be treated as 3rd party components?

I've looked at the ASP.NET starter kit, but they won't print out and so far
I haven't figured out how I can use them.
 
Inquire about the Office Web Components. For most charting uses, the license
requirements are free.

You need one of the many 3rd party solutions which are available as native
..NET assemblies. I.e., you simply add them as a reference into your Windows
or Web project and they are then available to you without any requirement to
register anything on your ISP's network.

This is the best that I've seen: http://www.advsofteng.com/cdnet.html
 
Make sure that you get a native .NET Assembly / component. If you get a
..NET Assembly component then as long as your host allows you to use
assembles (uplaoding .dll's to your bin directory) then you are good to go.
If your host does not allow you to then I advise you get another host as
there are hosting providers for cheaper that offer this service
