Remarks
This custom class generates a chart by automating MS Graph using the core Graph Wizard engine.
To use, drop the class on a project or form or, from the Component Gallery Item Shortcut Menu, select Add to Project or Add to Form. When you add the class to a form, Visual FoxPro opens a builder so you can specify the cOutputfile, nChartType, lAddLegend, and lSeriesByRow values. You can also use the autograph class and supply values for fields, chart type, the preview form, and default name in program code. When you drop the class on a project, you can choose between adding the class or creating a subclass.
See Guidelines for Using Visual FoxPro Foundation Classes for more information on using foundation classes.
