Re: Is there a way to "copy" and/or "save" chart?

[Software FX]

1) Yes. You can reuse the chart as you like. At any given point however, the 

chart must have only ONE container. 

MFC however, will not let you manipulate the control in this way. You can 

not pass a pointer to an MFC control. The only way to initialize the pointer 

to the control in MFC is by creating one. Well, at least not as far as I 

know ... 

So even though neither OLE nor Chart FX imposes any restrictions on setting 

a diferent container at run time, MFC makes it hard. 

2) Chart FX is a generic OLE Control so it doesn't know a CFile/CArchive. 

You can export the chart to a file passing the HANDLE to the file (which you 

can obtain from CFile if the file is a disk file) and you can also export 

the chart to an OLE Stream or Storage.
