Steven,

The class is wwWebGraphs.prg. I believe there is an article and zip you can download from West-Wind. The article is great and the zip contains examples of using OWC in a WinForm.

Thanks,

Jerry

>>You might want to look at MS Office Web Components(OWC). This is a free tool from Microsoft. I believe it comes with MS Office or you can download it.
>>
>>I use it to generate charts and graphs on our website on-the-fly. It is very fast and easy to use. West-Wind.com even has a class library that uses OWC.
>>
>>Basically you can create your cursor to graph, set properties in OWC for chart type, colors, etc..., and OWC will chart the data and generate a .GIF in a location you specify.
>>
>>Perhaps you could use this for creating a chart on your VFP report.

I have previously used George Tasker's utility to turn screens into bitmaps, but that one may not be applicable as it is an excel spreadsheet we are dealing with. Also, I would rather that all this is done in the background, so the user does not see excel coming up.
