Microsoft Chart Control

I am trying to use the ActiveX object library for Microsoft Chart
Control 6.0,
located in the file MSChrt20.ocx.
I am doing this in LabVIEW and not in VB.
The problem is that I do not have VB 6.0 at all, but have managed to
find
the file MSChrt20.ocx on the net. After registering this component on my
NT-PC,
I am able to hook on to the MS Chart control in a container, but it is
not working.

So the question is, what is it that I need in addition to the
MSChrt20.ocx-file,
to make this work ?? Does MSChrt20.ocx need some dll's or some other
OCX's or what ?

Any LabVIEW hackers around that been into this ?

Please reply directly to me also.

Martin,
You probably donot have a design time license for the chart ocx control and
hence you do not have access to it's properties and methods from a designer
environment. There is a very good(powerful) straight forward ActiveX graphing
control called TeeChart, which Borland Delphi programmers have been using
for years. I highly reccommend it. It is not free, however it is not too
expensive, and I'm sure they have free trial versions available.

Simply install Word or Excel, it's easier ! 🙂
