PowerPoint slide produced by Spire is unreadable by PowerPoint

[dbrewerton]

Hey folks, I have code that is supposed to generate a PowerPoint chart automatically. However, whenever I implement this code, it breaks the slide. No idea why it does this but whatever. So, here is the code to call the slide builder helper:

                SqlCommand sqlcmdLOC = new SqlCommand(sqlQueryLOC, sqlconn);
                using (SqlDataAdapter da1 = new SqlDataAdapter(sqlcmdLOC))
                {
                    DataTable dt1 = new DataTable();
                    da1.Fill(dt1);
                    InitChartData(chart1, dt1);
                    sqlconn.Close();
                }
 

That InitChartData(chart1, dt1) call goes into this routine:

        private static void InitChartData(IChart chart1, DataTable dt1)
        {
            //set series name
            ChartSeriesFormatCollection ctf = chart1.Series;
            for (int c = 0; c < dt1.Columns.Count; c++)
            {
                chart1.ChartData[0, c].Text = dt1.Columns[c].Caption;
                if (c > 0)
                {
                    ctf.Append(chart1.ChartData[0, c]);
                }
            }
            ChartCategoryCollection catg = chart1.Categories;
            for (int r = 0; r < dt1.Rows.Count; r++)
            {
                //set category
                catg.Append(chart1.ChartData[r + 1, 0]);
 
                //set chartData value
                object[] data = dt1.Rows[r].ItemArray;
 
                for (int c = 0; c < data.Length; c++)
                {
                    chart1.ChartData[r + 1, c].Value = data[c];
                }
                //set series value
                for (int i = 0; i < ctf.Count; i++)
                {
                    chart1.Series[i].Values.Add(chart1.ChartData[r + 1, i + 1]);
                }
            }
        }
