Thanks for the reply Rogelio! This is actually very similar to the method that I ended up figuring out except I am using a datasource for the chart (DataTable). I was forced to make one of the columns a DateTime which works fine using the custom format "hh:mm:ss". The problem is that when I save this datatable it saves the entire date time 2009-03-04T00:00:00-08:00 when all I really need is just the time. I was hoping I could pass just a string or something instead that AxisFormat.Time will be able to understand, but I wasn't able to figure that out. Maybe I can use some type of xmlwriter function to save it, but I haven't figured out how to do that either.

I have a DataTable with a Time column. What format or type should I make this column? I tried playing with using the DateTime type which does work, but the date is stored as well in the form of (1/1/1001 hh:mm:ss) which I don't want, just the time. I saw that there was a an AxisFormat.Time and AxisFormat.DateTime. What is the difference between these two types and how do you use the AxisFormat.Time with a datasource? I tried to find the answer on the forums, but was unable to. I also tried to create the column as a DateTime, and pass the time using ToOATime(). On the chart I set it up this way: _chartCtrl.AxisX.LabelsFormat.Format = AxisFormat.Time; _chartCtrl.AxisX.LabelsFormat.CustomFormat = "mm:ss"; But instead of showing mm:ss it doesn't seem to recognize the passed value and just prints out the double value of the OATime. Thanks, James
