trying to avoid the API--MSChart
I'm writing my first commercial application in VB5. I need an XY graph,
and am feeding it from a Grid--right now it's an MS grid, but will probably
eventually be FormulaOne or TrueGrid. The chart will accomplish most of
what I need, but I need the points highlighted after the line connecting
them is drawn, which only works the first time I draw it. If a datapoint
is subsequently clicked, only that point remains highlighted even if I
refresh the graph. So far my tinkering with SelectPart hasn't solved this,
although the syntax documentation isn't that clear to me.
More importantly, I haven't been able to transfer the graph to a PictureBox
or otherwise prepare it for the DataGet/DataSet methods. Can this be done
without resorting to the API? I found a VB4 method for BitBlt in the MSKB
that will do this, but assume it needs modification, so am trying to avoid
it.
TIA-William Arnold
