Using VS 2010 and Q2 2012 reporting. In my report I can use "Fields.FieldName" to pass information into a function for my HTML text box. Is there some way to specify the data to be used in a chart in the same way?

Thanks, 

Matthew

Hi Matthew,

The chart engine has been designed in the context of this being a web control (it is in fact the engine of RadChart for ASP.NET AJAX), and it does not work directly with the reporting engine and respectively with the expressions. You have to input the name of the column directly i.e. instead of = Fields.MyColumn, just set MyColumn as value for DataYColumn/DataXColumn properties of the series.

All the best,
