How to copy a chart question

[User (Legacy)]

I have several charts on my WinForms app (each on its own tab).  I am now

trying to create a report (using ActiveReports) that contains 2 or more

graphs on the page.  I have looked at the sample from DataDynamics, and have

a graph printing on the report.  My question is this:

Is it possible to "copy" a chart object and place it in another chart object

and have the second chart object "be the same" as the first chart object?  I

have tried the following, and it does not work:

    In my "Globals" module

        Dim g_Chart1 as New SoftwareFX.ChartFX.Chart()

    In my windows form:

        Dim Chart1 as New SoftwareFX.ChartFX.Chart()

        ' Code that sets all chart option and binds the datasource to the

chart

        ' Assign Chart1 to the global Chart Object

        g_Chart1 = Chart1

    In my ActiveReport

        Dim Chart1 as New SoftwareFX.ChartFX.Chart()

        Chart1 = CType(Me.customControl1.Control, SoftwareFX.ChartFX.Chart)

        Chart1 = g_objChart1

Thanks,

Assigning it will not copy it. It will just reference it.

To copy a chart to another, you can use the Export and Import methods. You

can use a memory stream to make the transfer.
