graphs with report generator

Hello,
hopefully this is one of my last questions about the report generator. This time the problem is how to get a graph in excel with the first column on the x-axis and the second column on the y-axis. What I get now is the first column as axis, and the other axis is something generated from excel, just as if I'm always using a bar plot, but then with dots. So the question is: how to say with column is x and with column is y with the report generator for LV6.i (as well for word as for excel)
Thanks.

Found it myself:

my problem was solved using a constant is stead of a control to determine the type of graph.

****THREAD HIJACK******

On the topic of Generating reports with graphs and such.... I was noticing when generating a standard report using the Report Generation VIs, when I append a graph using Append Control Image to Report.vi ... I lose sharpness of the image, and appears more pixelated then it does on the front panel.

Is there a way I can have that graph in my report without a loss of resolution?

It is most noteable in the numbers on the x-y scales, and the scale labels. Ive tried playing a little with the size of the graph when being appended using the property node, to no avail. Also tried saving as a png instead of jpg... which helped a little.

Any other options?

Thanks in advance.

Matt

EDIT: Posted this in the hardware threads also by accident... its better suited in the Labview threads though

EDIT2: Just noticed the loss in resolution is only in standard reports that generate PDFs... not in the HTML reports... losing the resolution in the conversion into the PDF.
