    Really? Nobody knows?

    I posted a question yesterday that no one even attempted a reply. Am I the only one that has ever used the MSChart control and wanted to see the value of the bars/slices. In excel you can choose to see labels above the bars or on the pie slices that shows the value for that bar's/slice's value. Has ANYONE figured out how to do this in VB?

    you could record a macro of you doing just that in Excel and then look at the code that it generates

    This forum is littered with unanswered questions on the MSChart control. I gave up on the damn thing quite a while ago.

    You can do a search, but you aren't going to find much of any useful information.

    MS chart control used in vb (aka Chart Control 6) is a differnt control from the one used in Excel.

    The one is excel referneces the MS Execel library.
    I tried to get it into VB but havent got much time to spend, try and investage that instead.

    Hit the nail

    Hack you said it. Information on that control is few and far between and the information that is out there is so vague it's virtually useless.

    How about this question: Anyone know of a free or inexpensive alternative to the MSChart control?

    I have no idea of the cost, and have never used it myself. But I have heard good comments about Tee-Chart. Sorry, that's about all the info I have. Hope it helps
