Hi there,

I work on a data collection package in VFP 7.0 and need to enhance my package by adding some sort of Control Charting. I'm considering a 3rd party vendor or some sort of add-on tool that I can use, but not sure if the latter will allow for enough flexibility. The 3rd party vendor option (naturally) is rather expensive, and the budget is tight right now. My customers would like to see something that I can start rolling out in production in early Jan. '04.

This is all brand new to me.... Any suggestions as to what route to take? Any charting add-ons that VFP works well with? Easy to use? Any 3rd party products that work well with Fox?

All of the data I would like to plot is in a temporary table on the PC's hard drive already (available for another purpose). I would like to be able to make a call to the charting program and pass it the data I want it to chart as opposed to the program making a call (via ODBC or another method) to the FoxPro database to get the data for the chart(s).

Please let me know your thoughts/ideas!

Thanks,

Joe
