Graphing multiple data set with different x values

[User (Legacy)]

Hi,

I want to graph data sets with different x values that are date/time values, 

such as:

Set 1:

    X Valule                            Y Value

11/14/2004 8:15:00 AM        30.3

11/14/2004 8:15:20 AM        30.9

11/14/2004 8:15:50 AM        31.5

Set 2:

    X Valule                            Y Value

11/14/2004 8:15:10 AM        15.9

11/14/2004 8:15:40 AM        17.8

11/14/2004 8:16:15 AM        13.5

Set 2:

    X Valule                            Y Value

11/14/2004 8:15:05 AM        8.8

11/14/2004 8:15:45 AM        12.4

11/14/2004 8:16:20 AM        13.3

The X Axis is the date/time values.  The Y axis will be the floating-point 

data.  Do I need to pre-process the data to look like the following, with 

the blank spaces being a COD.HIDDEN?:

    X Valule                            Y Value1    YValue2    YValue3

11/14/2004 8:15:00 AM        30.3

11/14/2004 8:15:05 AM                                            8.8

11/14/2004 8:15:10 AM                            15.9

11/14/2004 8:15:20 AM        30.9

11/14/2004 8:15:40 AM                            17.8

11/14/2004 8:15:45 AM                                            12.4

11/14/2004 8:15:50 AM        31.5

11/14/2004 8:16:15 AM                            13.5

11/14/2004 8:16:20 AM                                            13.3

Thanks, in advance, for the help!

No. You can pass different X-Values for each series. Right as you have it in 

your data originally. The data will just look like this:

Date1                                        Value1                Date2 

Value2    ....

11/14/2004 8:15:00 AM            30.3                   11/14/2004 8:15:10 

AM        15.9

11/14/2004 8:15:20 AM            30.9                   11/14/2004 8:15:40 

AM        17.8

Thanks for the response.  Does this mean that I need to set the type of the 

columns like so?:

MyChart.DataType[ 0 ] = SoftwareFX.ChartFX.DataType.XValue;

MyChart.DataType[ 1 ] = SoftwareFX.ChartFX.DataType.Value;

MyChart.DataType[ 3 ] = SoftwareFX.ChartFX.DataType.XValue;

MyChart.DataType[ 4 ] = SoftwareFX.ChartFX.DataType.Value;
