Graphs changing at run time

[crystalReporterNew]

Hello

I have inserted a graph as a bar chart in my crystal report but want it to change into say a pie chart or a line chart depending on certain conditions at run time. Instead of making different crystal reports for that can I make the change in my VB program that sets the graphtype as what I want? I tried looking at the Section.ReportObjects.Item.ObjectFormat functions and stuff like that but nothing allows me to set the graph type in my program...is there anyway to do this?

Since you didn't state how you're invoking reports, nor what version of Crystal or VB I'll assume that you're not interested in specifics, just whether it's possible.

Use the report graphing API:

I thought that you went with Chelsea's different sections for each report, I'll assume that this is an older post.

The trouble with cross posting...
