	Does anyone know if it's possible to dynamically create charts in crystal reports using C# code? I'm using VS2005 and Crystal Reports v10 and would like to dynamically create multiple charts (Bar, Line, Gantt) on the same report. The user can specify up to 3 charts with any combination (2 bar charts + 1 line; all 3 gantt charts, etc) Edited by murraylm - 06 Feb 2009 at 10:16am

	If all else fails, you could do with our CRChart add-in for Crystal Reports. -Dan DISCLAIMER: I work for the company threedgraphics.com, that makes this product. This product costs money.

	Hi Dan, Thanks for your response. I looked into the add-in but I wasn't able to see how this tool could help. Did I miss something? Does it allow you to create a new charts dynamically? Thanks

	You can CHANGE the graphtype dynamically with the @GRAPHTYPE macro http://www.threedgraphics.com/tdg/products/tools/crchart/html_docs/docs/graphtype.htm @COMBO could also be useful. I believe you can "hide" or "show" graphs using some CR tricks that I've read about (but don't know offhand). Combined with the ability to dynamically decide what chart these would be, I thought this might give you the power you want. Feel free to download the free demo and play around. Its easy to uninstall if it doesn't help you. -Dan
