Hello I hope everyone had a great Easter Holiday.
I have Visual Studio 2010 using VB.Net with the newest Measurement Studio. I was wondering if someone could point me to an article or even better an example on how to create a Crystal Report that would contain graphs? What I want to do is create a report that looks like the Measurement Studio graph that is displayed on the screen. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hey toddtari,
The best way I can think of to do this would be to include the graph in the report as an image. Here is some information I found on including images into crystal reports: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7706662/add-image-to-crystal-report-at-runtime
And you can easily convert Measurement Studio graphs to images, as seen in this previous forum post: http://forums.ni.com/t5/Measurement-Studio-for-NET/saving-graph-as-image/m-p/1115427
I can imagine you could have code that plots information on the graph, saves it as an image, and then attaches it to the report. I hope this helps, but if you need any more assistance, let us know!
