Thank you for this SPChart very good webpart!!
But I have a question which is:
I need to chart one view of the list.. not all the list data! what should I do to view the selected data only?
Thank you on advance for your responce.
You can try version 0.7b1 which includes view selection (available from the download section).
Hi, I tried today, SPChart version 0.7b1, but it does not work well with me!
I have selected one of the list views,.. I also selected All Items View and in both I had this webpart error “Value does not fall within the expected range.”..
The webpart looks good only when I let the ‘select view’ option empty..
Thanks a lot for your efforts.
Thank you for the response. It really helps to get feedback from the users.
I’ve fixed it now in version 0.7b2 – if you have more comments you can also use the forum.
Thank you!! .. It workes nice now!
I wonder if you could add a connection feature to this webpart, so as to let site users to switch between available views using an external view filter..??
Connections – I’m the familiar with that option in SharePoint. Can you direct me to a relevant MSDN article or something similar?
Nice webpart. But as far sharepoint list is it limited to the current site. It would nice if i could link to list from other sites in the sitecollection.
I’ve just added support to put list by URL in thewebpart (0.7 beta 3), so now you can use SPChart with list from anywhere within the SharePoint as long as the user got access to that list.
Is there any way to have this available as webpart that could simply be uploaded to a single site webpart gallery? I am in a situation where I do not have access to install at the server level.
Thanks for your consideration.
To my best of knowledge to install this web part you need installation privileges at the Site Collection level.
I like what I see, but am having issues making it work. here is a generic thing I am trying to do. basically we have a list of our servers, I have a field for if it is physical, virtual, or appliance. I am trying to get a chart of how many of each I have. so far I have not had any luck.
any help would be appreciated

I don’t see any an easy way to do that
Hi,
I only have WSS 2.0 SP3, would your webparts work (specially the SP slideshow and SPChart) work on our site?
Thanks
No, all the web parts & features in this site will work only on WSS 3.0 (and MOSS).
Do we have to download and install it on the wss server or can it be directly installed into the site collection by users who have admini privileges for the site collection
Download & install by administrator only.
Thank you!! I love the Chart web part!! Quick question, I have a view that groups by program and counts the number of projects within each program. I would like to represent the programs along with the count for each in a pie chart. Is this do-able in the Chart web part.
Thanks again, keep up the AWESOME work!!
Thank you for the feedback.
I think it is possible. If it’s just 2 columns: “Program Name” & “Count” it should work just fine.
Please leave your comments in the forum, it’s easier to keep track of the threads there.
Hi
In what form do you specify a Oracle datasource?
Try using the relevant connection string from here (depends if you use native oracle client, OLE DB or ODBC):
http://www.connectionstrings.com/oracle
Make sure you’ve got oracle client installed on your SharePoint server
Hello,
The SPChart is very exciting. I have WSSv3.0 SQL Server 2008 and I am on a standalone Windows Server 2003 Standard.
I have downloaded and installed the SPChart. On my site I have added the SPChart Web Part. It displays on the site but says \No Data\. I do not understand how to change or edit the data?
Please would you be able to help me understand how to use this?
Thank you very much.
Hello Niderator,
I have foungd where to select the data.
I have got it working.
This is very very cool.
I do have another question for you if you would be so kind.
I would like to display a COGNOS Impromptu Report. Do you have a tool on your page that would be workable for that?
Best regards,
Ron
Select the data source, write an SQL, execute it, select columns to display and save. For more help please leave a comment in the forum (it’s easier to follow threads there).
I’m playing around with the chart and it is very easy to use. Is there any way to change the font used in the axes labels or adjust where the legend appears (right now it seems to be set at the top, but I’d like it at the bottom)? thanks
SPChart is based on OpenFlashChart2. Last time I checked OpenFlashChart2 does not support changing the location of the legend. Adjusting the fonts – I’ll have to check that,
when i install on my production site (WSS3) I get an exception – can you point me in the right direction to resolve the problem ?:
System.IO.FileNotFoundException: The Web application at http://mysite/Projects/TestSite could not be found. Verify that you have typed the URL correctly. If the URL should be serving existing content, the system administrator may need to add a new request URL mapping to the intended application.

at Microsoft.SharePoint.SPSite..ctor(String requestUrl)
at SpChart.SharePoint.SpList.GetData(Guid viewId)
at SpChart.ChartOM.DataSourceSharePointList.GetData()
at SpChart.WebPartSpChart.CreateChildControls()
Love your work, thank you for your efforts. Regarding SPChart part and its connection to a SharePoint list, it appears that Calculated columns are not supported. Is this true or is it something that I am doing wrong?
Thank you for reporting this issue. It will be fixed in SPChart 1.1 in the coming week or so.
Could not reproduce this issue. Can you please describe the settings: is it a site collection root? child site? the SPChart web part in the same site as the data list?
In general – the error says that the URL given to SPSite c-tor is invalid, however, as said, the issue did not reproduce here.
finally got it working on my prod site – was a permission issue. One more question/request – any way to format numbers on the y-axis with commas/currency symbols (e.g. $4,454,234)
I just uploaded the new version, which seems to use the “thousands separator” for large numbers by default, which solves my primary issue. one more comment – I notice that the y-axis title and the y-axis values can run overlap. thanks for the nice work.
