I recently learned how to include charts in visual studio 2008 express edition. If you want to do the same then you need do following things:
1) Get visual studio 2008 Express SP1 or higher version
2) Upgrade to .net 3.5 sp1 (if you use lower version of .net)
3) Download Microsoft chart controls : Download Link and then install it.
After you are done with Installing a ‘charts’ option will appear in the Data Tab in Toolbox. If you still do not see it you will need to add
1) System.Web.UI.DataVisualization.Charting
2) System.Windows.Forms.DataVisualization.Charting.
Just right-click pane -> choose items -> select the above namespaces in the .net framework components!
here’s a tutorial after you are successful at seeing the ‘charts’ option. click me .
And Let’s connect! I Look forward to Interacting with you on any of these people networks:
Thanks and it was helpful.
Thanks for dropping by
Thanks for the chart controls link
No problem!
Thank you for the download link
You’re welcome
Good work! Keep it up.
Thanks
I also had to Browse for two corresponding dll files in “ProgramFiles/Microsoft Chart/” first to be able to check the namespaces in “choose items” form.
Thanks for the tip!
