I've been trying to get a bar graph to display in my VB6 program.

Basically i want to simulate a Tank filling up and emptying so for the moment i have a timer running on my computer which displays in

Mytext(1).text. I havent a clue where to start. Do i need to load these values into a grid or can i link the graph output directly to my text box value.

I wont post my code for the rest of the program becasue it has no relevance on this section of what im doing. Just that Mytext(1).text has a number constantly counting from 0 to 1000.
If someone could just point me in the right direction or have a good example to hand. Do i use MSChart or the likes...... crazy.gif
Thanks again guys.

okay so i got it working somewhat. Only thing is I want the graph to stay scaled on the y- axis from 0 to 5000. Instead the y-axis rescales with the increase from 0 to 5000. as in it scales from 0 to 1 then 0 to 100 then 0 to 1000 then 0 to 5000.

CODE

Dim arrData() As Double
  
    ReDim arrData(1)
    arrData(1) = mytext(1)
    
    MSChart1.ChartData = arrData


End Sub
