I've been unable to get the VB sample code to actually work. The sample program is written in C# but VB.NET snippets are displayed when the program is run (also available in *.txt files).

However, when trying to run a VB program using the provided VB code, the control is X'd out at runtime. I'm guessing that the snippets are leaving out some vital info. Forum users are unwilling or unable to proffer an explanation. All in all a very frustrating and time consuming experience.

There is awesome article about using Microsoft Chart Controls here :

Samples are written with C#, but are so straightforward and you can translate to VB.
