  Dear all,
  
  how can i show a state name in the XAxis, for example let say i am using the chart for population count,
  i need to show the state name on the Xaxis and on the yAxis the graph is shown. 
  
  on ASP.Net control i can use this:
  "<asp:Series Name="Series1" XValueMember="sname" YValueMembers="Column1"  ChartType="Column">
                      
                  </asp:Series>
             "
  
  XValueMember="sname" is the state name.
  
  Thanks.

  Hi kiran,
  
  There are two ways to set Labels for the XAxis:
  
  1. You can bind them using the XAxis.DataLabelsColumn property. This code sample shows how to bind
  RadChart to DataTable and set the "Name" Column of the DataTable as XAxis DataLabelsColumn:
  
  

  DataTable table = new DataTable();

         table.Columns.Add(new DataColumn("Name", typeof(string)));

         table.Columns.Add(new DataColumn("Value", typeof(int)));

         table.Rows.Add(new object[] { "A", 10});

         table.Rows.Add(new object[] { "B", 20 });

         table.Rows.Add(new object[] { "C", 30 });

         ChartSeries chartSeries1 = new ChartSeries();

         chartSeries1.DataYColumn = "Value";

         chartSeries1.DefaultLabelValue = "#Y%";

         chartSeries1.Type = Telerik.Charting.ChartSeriesType.Bar;

         RadChart1.AddChartSeries(chartSeries1);

         RadChart1.PlotArea.XAxis.DataLabelsColumn = "Name";

         RadChart1.DataSource = table;

         RadChart1.DataBind();

  
  2. You can set the Axis labels Programmatically as shown in this help article.
