Graphs in .NET

[Guest]

My client is a mortgage broker who refinances loans for their client. I am
developing an application which project terms, interest paid etc on clients
existing loans and how a new plan can improve their financial standings. I
showing existing loans and new loan summary in a DataGrid using DataTable,
i.e. creating monthly entries (including their repayments, interest charged
etc) over the period of term.

Now I want to show each existing loans and new plan on a Line Graph. How can
I do that? I want the data values for the graph to be taken from the
DataGrid’s (column “Date†values on X axis and column “Repayments†values on
Y axis) for each existing loan and new plan. Are there any controls in .NET
which I can use for creating Line graph on a form? I want to dynamically
create graphs as there can be multiple loans and plans for a client. I could
not find any helpful material on the web as well.

I am really baffled, should I use Crystal Reports, Microsoft Office Web
Components, is there any control shipped with .NET? I am totally lost, please
set me in right direction.

Thanx
