MS Chart and other mysteries

[briggsy79]

Hi,
I dont expect anyone to go and code anything fully here but if someone could point me in the right direction i would be very thankful.
I wish to chart data in an MS chart (or anyhting else).
The database my app is connected to with ADO has a few fields i.e. Name,Victims Name, Punishment type ...etc
When the user selects what they want to graph the chart displays the amount of records each person or other field type appears in, in a bar graph. Preferably in descending order.
I have currently have hard-coded the ADO control but i imagine i am going to change this sooner or later
I also assume i will need to use SQL but dont know what commands or how.
Thank you very much.
David

David,

did you look at the ChartSample application? You can install it from your VB CD. MSChart is not the easiest control to program, but the best way is probably to connect a flexgrid to the chart.

Success,
