Graphical display of data

JJ
Just wondered what is generally used to display data in graphical form?

(i..e I have some simple data to display in a bar graph/pie chart for
example).

Just wondered what is generally used to display data in graphical form?
There are many, many 3rd-party business graphics solutions or .NET:
http://www.google.co.uk/search?sourc...2eNET%22+chart

Almost all of them do almost exactly the same things... Have a look at a few
and pick the one you like best :-)

I use this one: http://www.advsofteng.com/
(i..e I have some simple data to display in a bar graph/pie chart for
example).
In addition to the link Michael suggested, very basic bar "charts" can be
simulated with labels of various lengths and background colours - looks
pretty amateurish, though... :-)

Thanks guys.

I want it to look as good as possible (but with minimum effort and no cost
ofcourse.. ;-) )

The other option if to feed the data to flash. Might be too much work there.
Will take a look at the link first....

Thanks,

JJ

I think there is a free library on www.codeproject.com that works OK.

See:
http://www.dotnetcharting.com/
There are 2 different "rates" that you're talking about.

The rate to get data out of the datastore (usually a database).
The rate to render the data.
You also want to seperate the code which gets the data (datalayer) from the
code whichs presents it ( presentation layer, dotnetcharting for example).
Take a look at
5/24/2006
Custom Objects/Collections and Tiered Development
http://sholliday.spaces.live.com/blog/
That will show you "layered" or "tiered" development.
It will also allow you to time the 2 rates your speaking of, without mixing
the two.
