Adding Charts/Graphs to .NET pages

[westmich]

I downloaded a trial component from http://www.ChartFX.com but I am nothing but errors and haven't gotten a lot of help. Are there other components, free or not, similar to ChartFX? How hard is to use WebObjects to get decent report?

I haven't tried any of these but the vb.net resource kit:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/vbasic/vbrkit/default.aspx

contains ComponentOne Studio Enterprise and Dundas Charts Which might fit your needs.

and .... The ComponentOne Studio includes a license, so it is free.

I've used www.dotnetcharting.com with success and satisfaction. Price is also good compared to others like it.

I am in the process of downloading the kit from MS, the other is a little out of my price range although it seems ideal. I read the reference to the Dundas Chart, however, it looks like it is set for WinForms only?

I saw that too and don't know if that means you cannot absolutley use it on a web form. If not, it looks like ComponentOne might contain something:

ComponentOne Studio Enterprise
A comprehensive collection of more than 30 high-quality WinForms and ASP.NET Web controls including grid components, reporting components, charting components, data components, user-interface components, and e-commerce components.

Maybe it will contain the ComponentOne WebChart for ASP.net...

Hi,

I am also trying to find a chart control for asp.net 2.0. There are a lot of controls on the market, but some of them, although they create nice charts, are very expensive.

I have found these chart controls that look great and are not very expensive:

ExpertChart - ASP.NET 2.0 chart control
dotnetCharting

Did anyone use any of these? Do you have other recommandations?

Thanks

if your plan on going with a commercial product.

i would go with a charting library that provides interaction.
Example check out flash flex dashboards.

you can provide a webservice for your specific data.
