Creating Dazzling Charts with the Microsoft Chart Control

with expert Paul Litwin

The ASP.NET chart control, which ships with Visual Studio 2010 and ASP.NET 4.0, has a number of advanced capabilities for producing flexible and informative charts. The control is based on the same charting package that's part of SQL Server 2008 Reporting Services, but unlike the Reporting Services charts, the ASP.NET chart control can be programmatically manipulated at runtime. In this session, you will learn how to use the chart control to take your data to a new level by create visually compelling charts from within your ASP.NET applications. Paul will demonstrate creating a number of different charts, starting with a basic static chart, continuing by demonstrating a number of different data binding techniques, and ending by creating a chart that can be manipulated dynamically by users to change color, perspective, and chart type on the fly.
