User (Legacy) Posted July 12, 2002 Report Share Posted July 12, 2002 I'm planning on using ChartFX in my VB component and placing the charts in an ActiveReport report. When I attempt to add the ChartFX Internet Control to the ActiveReport control I get "Missing License" printed across the control. I use ChartFX successfully in my ASP project, but now I need to print the charts in a report and export them to PDF. What do I need to do to use the ActiveX version of ChartFX or fix this missing license problem? -- Brian M.

Software FX Posted July 14, 2002 Report Share Posted July 14, 2002 Because ActiveReports doesn't support licensed control, there are some issues with Chart FX, check out article Q1381030 in the KB for details about how to integrate these two. -- FP Software FX, Inc.

User (Legacy) Posted July 17, 2002 Author Report Share Posted July 17, 2002 Article Q1381030 references ChartFX 98 and I'm almost sure ActiveReports 1. I'm working with ChartFX Internet 5.5 and ActiveReports 2. Anyhow, I need a bit more information. I've successfully used ChartFX Internet 5.5 charts in my client's web pages using ChartFX's ASP functionality. Now I need to wrap up these charts in an exported PDF file created in my COM object. OK, so I insert a form in my Visual Basic DLL. What do I do from there? Do I add the ChartFX Internet Control to the toolbox and then add it to the form? If I do that the words "Missing License" are still printed out across the blank charting area. What do I need to do next? From what I've read, I need to create the first chart here and then I could go on to add further charts into my ActiveReports designer. I really need some help here, because I've got a deadline looming and I am lost.

Software FX Posted July 19, 2002 Report Share Posted July 19, 2002 Which component are you adding to the Active Report ? Chart FX IE Client ? Chart FX IE Client is designed only to run inside a browser, it requires HTTP connectivity from the container to download license information. Chart FX IE Client can not be used in a WEB server. I think what you want to do here is to export the chart as a picture (Metafile, Png, JPeg) and then embed this picture into the ActiveReports component. -- FP Software FX, Inc.
