Default charting components?

Hi all,
I need to develop a VS 2005 web app which will display a series of charts (line/pie) based on SQL 2005 data.

I see that there are a lot of 3rd party components out there for charts - some just DLL's and some allowing visual design in VS.

If you have experience of charts in VS 2005 can you please tell me which components you rate and other any other info you think is useful?

regards

Joel

Hi there,

In the past, I have used WebChart a number of times. It's free, implemented as a single DLL and has quite a lot of options. It doesn't render brilliant graphics, but it might do the trick for you:

In addition, you can take a look at Dundas Chart for .NET. It's not cheap, but it renders brilliant looking graphics: http://www.dundas.com/products/chart...?Section=Chart

HtH,
