If the chart feature in Crystal Reports don’t quite do what you want, you might want to upgrade your charting engine to CR Chart. CR Chart is sold by Three D Graphics. And since Three D Graphics makes the current Crystal Reports charting engine, you know that the upgrade is fully compatible. You just replace one DLL with an upgraded DLL.

So what does CR Chart allow you to do? You get to use new chart types that aren’t currently in CR, like BoxPlots, Pareto Charts and Waterfall Charts. You can change chart properties dynamically at runtime and even add programmable reference lines and labels to your charts.

And as a special offer to my readers, you can save 25% on your purchase if you buy before October 31st. Just use the promo code CK4EWV to get the discount. Or, if you would like to try it first, you can use the the trial version which is just like the original version but with a visible watermark over the chart images.
The cost of CR Chart is $499 (before the discount) which includes one developers license and a royalty free runtime and deployment license. See my LINKS page for a direct link to CR Chart information.
