Creating and Displaying graphs and charts in C#

I was wondering if there were any prebuilt chartting functions in VS2005 or the .NET framework as a whole Or would I be required to purchase one of the many 3rd party tools out there

If the latter is the case, have you got any ideas for a quality, clear-display, student-friendly version.

Thanks.

    You could use Crystal for generating reports or Visual Studio Tools for Office for linking Microsoft Office. If those aren't right for you, you should try finding a third party tool. There are some open source solutions.

    Hello

    I am quite new to C# etc.. so I don't know if there is any functionality built in VS2005 . I used a trial version of software from

    www.gigasoft.com.

    I proved my application then bought the software. It looks good, easy to use and wasn't as expensive as some of the others that I looked at.

    After 30 days of use it displays a message in the centre of the graph but can still be used. It depends on what you require.

    Hoepe this helps,

    Cheers

    Peter
