Binding to DataTable

Updated on May 7, 2026

Binding to DataTable is quite easy with RadChartView. Once your table is created, you just need to set the needed members to the desired fields. In this article , you can find the members needed for the different series types.

Here is a sample demonstrating how to bind а LineSeries:

Binding to DataTable

C#

DataTable table;

protected override void OnLoad(EventArgs e)
{
    base.OnLoad(e);

    table = new DataTable();
    table.Columns.Add("Value", typeof(double));
    table.Columns.Add("Name", typeof(string));
    table.Rows.Add(1, "John");
    table.Rows.Add(3, "Adam");
    table.Rows.Add(5, "Peter");
    table.Rows.Add(12, "Sam");
    table.Rows.Add(6, "Paul");

    LineSeries lineSeria = new LineSeries();
    radChartView1.Series.Add(lineSeria);

    lineSeria.ValueMember = "Value";
    lineSeria.CategoryMember = "Name";
    lineSeria.DataSource = table;
}

VB.NET

    Private table As DataTable

    Protected Overrides Sub OnLoad(e As EventArgs)
        MyBase.OnLoad(e)

        table = New DataTable()
        table.Columns.Add("Value", GetType(Double))
        table.Columns.Add("Name", GetType(String))
        table.Rows.Add(1, "John")
        table.Rows.Add(3, "Adam")
        table.Rows.Add(5, "Peter")
        table.Rows.Add(12, "Sam")
        table.Rows.Add(6, "Paul")

        Dim lineSeria As New LineSeries()
        RadChartView1.Series.Add(lineSeria)

        lineSeria.ValueMember = "Value"
        lineSeria.CategoryMember = "Name"
        lineSeria.DataSource = table
    End Sub

Adding, removing or modifying a record in the DataTable is automatically reflected in RadChartView:
