I am using Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 and need to know the most popular
method of creating charts and graphs. Also if you could supply an example.

Many thanks

Mark,

I have downloaded and installed Microsoft Chart Controls Add-on for
Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 -
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=1D69CE13-E1E5-4315-825C-F14D33A303E9&displaylang=en

I then created a new project in MS Visual Studio 2008 and added the Chart
control to a form however it does not show any chart or data when I run it in
debug.

This is the code in my default.aspx
<%@ Page Language="vb" AutoEventWireup="false" CodeBehind="Default.aspx.vb"
Inherits="Report_Test._Default" %>

<%@ Register assembly="System.Web.DataVisualization, Version=3.5.0.0,
Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35"
namespace="System.Web.UI.DataVisualization.Charting" tagprefix="asp" %>

ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:PADSConnectionString %>"
SelectCommand="SELECT [Currency], [FXRate] FROM [tlkpCurrency]">
</asp:SqlDataSource>
</form>
</body>
</html>

I want to show the currency and its FXRate

Mark,

I have now sorted this problem and can now run the chart locally, however is
does not work on our host's server.

Do they need to install anything on there server for it to work?

Many Thanks
