Binding to XML at Design-Time using an XMLDataSource

RadChart has been deprecated since Q3 2014 and is no longer recommended for use, as it does not support modern browsers. We strongly recommend using RadHtmlChart, Telerik's modern client-side charting component. To transition from RadChart to RadHtmlChart, refer to the following migration articles:

• Migrating Series
• Migrating Axes
• Migrating Date Axes
• Migrating Databinding
• Features parity

Explore the RadHtmlChart documentation and online demos to determine how it fits your development needs.

To bind to XML at design-time using an XMLDataSource control:

1. Click the RadChart Smart Tag "Choose Data Source" | "New Data Source".

   

2. From the "Choose a data source type" page of the wizard select "XML File" and click "OK".

   

3. Using the Browse button locate and select the XML file. Click OK.
