    First post here - did a search and came up fairly empty, so here goes: I am developing an app to analyze and display data in graphical form - mainly histograms and scatter (X-Y) plots. I used GMS toolbox in VB6, but switching to .NET, I'd like to update the look and feel. Without spending an arm and a leg (and also getting a lot of chart types and features I do not need), do y'all have any recommendations? Thx, Atle

      I've used it for complex real-time stuff, and it still kicks butt ;) DundasCharts appears to be even better, but of course it isn't free.

        Zedgraph. Jon linked to it. I'd also recommend Dundas Chart - i tried it for a week or so prior to finding ZedGraph, and it is drop-dead easy to use.

          I've used the DevExpress chart control a few times - it worked great for me. I won't link to it - if you're going to look at it, you may as well click through the banner ad that appears here for their controls every couple of page refreshes. Cheers, Drew.

            We use Dundas Chart on CodeProject (and not just because they comp us a copy ;)) It really does rock.

                I too strongly recommend Dundas Chart which is used in CP itself and it strictly followed here in CP.

                      I use Telerik controls for both winforms and ASP.NET - these offer a high level of customisation and code can easily be migrated between online\offline use, also the other tools they offer are great value. http://www.telerik.com/

                        Telerik user here too - the Dundas and others were all good but a lot of them wanted me to buy a whole set of controls when I only wanted a chart. I like it but don't use it very much, just a few simple bar/line charts.

                          Yeah, should be noted that the winforms package has to be bought as a set whereas the asp.net controls can be bought seperatly (allthough I use virtually all their controls in my projects, particullarly recommend grid and combobox functionality)

                            I recommend the Dundas chart library for both win-forms and web applications. Dundas has done an excellent job with their charts in a very short period of time. My second suggestion, for web applications only, is the wonderful chart library by InfoSoftGlobal called Fusion Charts. Their flash based charts are very eye-catching, easy to use/configure and inexpensive. Dundas = $$$ FusionCharts = $

                              After an exhaustive comparison study, we decided on Dundas Enterprise (as many have mentioned already). It's not cheap at all, but it is the best feature for feature. It's also reasonably easy to use (although the documentation isn't that great).
