To learn how to work with the WinDataSource component, see Using the WinDataSource Designer.

Set up your WinDataSource with valid data for the chart type that you want to bind. The screen shot below shows the Data Entry form of the WinDataSource designer, with a sample set of data to which the Chart control can be bound. The example code below demonstrates how to bind Chart to WinDataSource.

Make sure you change each DataColumns DataType to be of numeric type, otherwise you will get an exception at run time.
Shows the WinDataSource's Designer in the Data Entry area with the data that will be used to bind the chart.

In Visual Basic:

Private Sub Binding_to_WinDataSource_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, _
  ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
	Me.UltraChart1.DataSource = Me.UltraDataSource1
End Sub

In C#:

private void Binding_to_WinDataSource_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
	this.ultraChart1.DataSource = this.ultraDataSource1;
}
