    Charts in VB6

    Is it possible to create charts with VB6.
    I am a student and would like to know if this is possible.
    I have data stored in ACCESS but it can be swaped into EXCEL or Word if that is better.

    Thanks for your pateience with a new user.

    Gary.

    Use an MSChart at first.
    Then if you want to do a lot of chart creation use something else, 'cos MSChart crap.

    I agree with GlenW...to say that MSChart leaves much to be desired is being polite.

    I haven't had many requirements for applications that produce charts, but the with the few I've had to developed, I created my charts in Excel, and just called them from my VB app.

    I second that, or third... I was trying to graph small numbers, and MSChart wouldn't even do it! I found this control somewhere on the web and it works pretty good, it did the trick for me!

    Thank you for your guidance I will look at the demo and if I cant handle that I will try Excel and call the chart into the VB Application.

    Thanks again
