Hey all - I'm attempting to write a program that accesses a database, runs some calculations according to user input, and then creates some graphs from the results. The first two steps were pretty simple, but I was disappointed to discover that VB.NET (at least the express edition) doesn't have any sort of built in graphing controls. My original thought is that one could snag the class library from excel and create one's own chart object on a form...but that doesn't seem to be working :-(
I also tried just exporting everything to excel for the graphing portion, but I'm dealing with so much data that the excel files are coming out to be 50+ megabytes in size. Any help would be great. BTW, I'm kinda cheap and don't want to pay for a third party graphing utility.
