Hi,



I am in a project which requires that charts be constructed from a database 

table on the server side and be served to the Client as Gifs.



I explored the possiblity of using Excel Object Model for the purpose.

This method though gives the best Gifs is not Scalable in an

internet environment



The major problem here is that Excel Application has to start up

Each time , A new sheet be added , New  Chart be constructed 

and exported to Gif



Any Suggestions or better components to do this is Welcome



Thanks in Advance

Regards

Try using the Office Web Components.  The article

http://www.elementkjournals.com/asp/0012/asp00c1.htm

has information on how to create them plus sample code.

Hope this helps.

You could use the aspimage component found at



http://www.serverobjects.com/



This allows for graphic editing, although you can make graphs and charts

with it.  I found this component to be very stable
