Re: Real-Time charts

Is the nSeries the Total number of series?  If you had 1 series and wanted to add 1 more nSeries would now be 2. 

The following bit of code works for me in Access2k.  Sometimes before I go "over the edge", I delete the control and reinsert it.  Seems to help.

Private Sub Form_Load() 

    'set chart with 1 series 

   ChartFX1.OpenDataEx COD_VALUES, 1, 5 

   ChartFX1.Series(0).Yvalue(0) = 30 

   ChartFX1.Series(0).Yvalue(1) = 76 

   ChartFX1.Series(0).Yvalue(2) = 43.5 

   ChartFX1.Series(0).Yvalue(3) = 90.75 

   ChartFX1.Series(0).Yvalue(4) = 12.5 

   ChartFX1.CloseData COD_VALUES 

End Sub 

Private Sub cmdAdd_Click() 

    'add another series to existing chart 

   ChartFX1.OpenDataEx COD_VALUES, 2, COD_UNCHANGE 

   ChartFX1.Series(1).Yvalue(0) = 40 

   ChartFX1.Series(1).Yvalue(1) = 86 

   ChartFX1.Series(1).Yvalue(2) = 53.5 

   ChartFX1.Series(1).Yvalue(3) = 100.75 

   ChartFX1.Series(1).Yvalue(4) = 22.5 

   ChartFX1.CloseData COD_VALUES 

End Sub
