How to Create Column Chart in Windows Application Using C#.Net

This article will explain your how you can create a column chart in windows application using chart control in windows application and C#.Net  from database table value.

Some of my previous articles are as follows: How To Create Dynamic Google Column Chart In an Asp.Net MVC Using C# and Javascript .

Here is the table data which we will use for generating the chart.

So for this article first we will create a new windows application. Now add a new form and in this form add a windows chart control. After adding all the controls we will create the series name for the chart control.

Now click on button open the series windows. Now we will rename the series name as shown.

After this generate the form load event to add the code.

using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.ComponentModel; using System.Data; using System.Drawing; using System.Linq; using System.Text; using System.Windows.Forms; using System.Windows.Forms.DataVisualization.Charting; using System.Data.SqlClient; namespace DemoWindowsApplication {     public partial class Form2 : Form     {         public Form2()         {             InitializeComponent();         }         private void Form2_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)         {             DataTable _objdt = new DataTable();             _objdt = GetStudentRecord();             chart1.DataSource = _objdt;             chart1.Series["Marksheet"].XValueMember = "Name";             chart1.Series["Marksheet"].YValueMembers = "Marks";             chart1.Series["Marksheet"].ChartType = SeriesChartType.Column;             chart1.Titles.Add("Student Report Graph");             chart1.DataBind();         }         public DataTable GetStudentRecord()         {             string connectionstring = "<--- ---="" connection="" string="" your="">";             DataTable _objdt = new DataTable();             string querystring = "select * from Student;";             SqlConnection _objcon = new SqlConnection(connectionstring);             SqlDataAdapter _objda = new SqlDataAdapter(querystring, _objcon);             _objcon.Open();             _objda.Fill(_objdt);             return _objdt;         }     } }

In above code x-coordinate field and y-coordinate field. After that we have defined chart type and title of chart. Now run the application to view the output.
