  Karthik:
  
  If I understand your requirement, it seems that you are trying to set the AXIS TITLE property for the x-axis and the y-axis.
  
  See the The Wizard Axis Tab documentation for design time settings.
  
  If you're trying to define the titles server-side, then take a look at the Creating RadChart Programmatically - more complex example.
  

  // Set text and line for X axis

  radChart.PlotArea.XAxis.AxisLabel.TextBlock.Text = "Years";

  radChart.PlotArea.XAxis.AxisLabel.TextBlock.Appearance.TextProperties.Color =

  System.Drawing.Color.Red;

  radChart.PlotArea.XAxis.Appearance.Width = 3;

  radChart.PlotArea.XAxis.Appearance.Color = System.Drawing.Color.Red;

  // Set text and line for Y axis

  radChart.PlotArea.YAxis.AxisLabel.TextBlock.Text = "%";

  radChart.PlotArea.YAxis.AxisLabel.TextBlock.Appearance.TextProperties.Color =

  System.Drawing.Color.Red;

  radChart.PlotArea.YAxis.Appearance.Width = 3;

  radChart.PlotArea.YAxis.Appearance.Color = System.Drawing.Color.Red;

  
  Hope this helps!

  Hi,
  
  You also need to set the label's Visible property to true. The below code should help.
  
  

  radChart1.PlotArea.XAxis.AxisLabel.TextBlock.Text = "# of items";           

  radChart1.PlotArea.XAxis.AxisLabel.Visible = true;

               

  radChart1.PlotArea.YAxis.AxisLabel.TextBlock.Text = "Expense";

  radChart1.PlotArea.YAxis.AxisLabel.Visible = true;
