Binding the Chart Control with Spread

You can bind the Chart control to data in the Spread control with the formula parameters in the SpreadChart constructor. The constructor uses formula syntax to specify the cell range.

You can also bind the Chart control in Spread with the CategoryFormula, DataFormula, Formula, or SeriesNameFormula properties.

Return to Using the Chart Control in Spread.

Using Code

Add values to the cells and then use the formula parameters in the SpreadChart constructor to create the Chart control.

Example

The following example uses the SpreadChart constructor to create a Chart control.
