myGraph.ocx

1.1 What does the ocx do?

The myGraph.ocx transforms Navision data into a graph, using MSChart. Therefore, the file mschrt20.ocx must be available on your system (usually in \windows\system or \winnt\system32 directory). Due to possible copyrights, this file is not included in this release.

It is now possible to print the graph or save the graph to a bmp-file.

1.2 Installation

• unzip all files into the same directory e.g. c:\temp
• open a DOS-box and change the directory:
  cd c:\temp
• copy mygraph.ocx into the windows-system directory:
  Windows 95, 98 : copy mygraph.ocx c:\windows\system
  Windows NT, 2000: copy mygraph.ocx c:\winnt\system32
• register the ocx into the Windows registry:
  Windows 95, 98 : regsvr32 c:\windows\system\mygraph.ocx
  Windows NT, 2000: regsvr32 c:\winnt\system32\mygraph.ocx
• if you don't already have the file msvbvm60.dll in your \windows\system or \winnt\system32 directory, copy it now:
  Windows 95, 98 : copy msvbvm60.dll c:\windows\system
  Windows NT, 2000: copy msvbvm60.dll c:\winnt\system32

1.3 How to use the ocx control in your Navision code

Included is a form 50000 that demonstrates the use of myGraph.ocx. It is written using Navision Financials W1 2.01.B, and works also with Navision Attain.

If the following properties are set to YES: AllowDynamicRotation, AllowSelections and the ChartType is a 3D one, you can rotate the graph using Ctrl and your mouse!
