Gantt Chart for Asp.Net Web forms application - asp.net

We are researching for product to use in our enterprise application based on Asp.Net Web forms.
The main points are as fellow:
Display Gantt View without the Task List.
Allow dynamic scale (Week/Month/Year)
Gantt chart will show Actions. Each Action has Planned Start date/ End Date, Forecast Start date/ End Date, Actual Start date/ End Date. We need to show each action as group. At top will be action name, below it a bar for Planned, Forecast and Actual dates.
Provide paging if data is huge.
Please let us know, if it is possible to achieve the requirement stated above.

Disclaimer first: this is a vendor-biased answer as I represent a company that is specialized in developing Gantt chart controls. Your above mentioned requirements can be achieved with our Gantt chart software control called VARCHART XGantt is also available as ASP.NET Edition.
Please have a look and let me know your thoughts.
If you like what you see, please send an email to sales#netronic.com and refer to this stackoverflow discussion: we are happy to prove our capabilities with a free-of-charge rapid prototype.

Line graph in ASP.NET using Datasource

I am somewhat a beginner in ASP.NET (C#), and I would like to know if it is feasible to draw a line chart of a time-series using data from a SQL table (SQL Server).
I haven't found any control that allows for a drawing of a time-series (i.e. Time as X-axis variable).
Also, I would like for the user to be able to hover over the chart and see data, as demonstrated in the following link:

Could anyone please enlighten me as to what is the best way to achieve such a result?
Thank you!
You have quite a few options, Reporting Services provides all sorts of graph and charting mechanisms. A personal favourite of mine is JQPlot. The bonus of the latter is that it's free!
Have you tried the Microsoft Chart controls.
have a look at ScottGU Blog here
I have used it and it works really well. The best part is that itès free ;)

Datatable and chart drupal view

I decided to use Drupal for a project. I am having some difficulties so please kindly help me.
I want to generate a table containing different calculations.
I want to generate a chart using the data from the table. If possible.
I tried before with view aggregation but no luck so far
I can't use google chart . Machine don't have access to internet.
Please see the attached image for info
Using Charts in combination with Highcharts is for sure an option that does not require an internet connection. However you'd have to check The license terms to see if you qualify for a free license (at no Cost). Refer to Steps to create charts using the views UI for step by step instructions.
There are some other modules available also, which also facilitate the creation of charts, and which might be considered as a possible alternative to the charts module. Checkout the Comparison of charting modules I creatief, for more details about them.

Chart column in asp.net repeater/list view / data grid?

I am new to ASP.Net.
How can I add a chart column in an asp.net repeater/list view / data grid (whatever possible)?
I want to feed the chart with data from a dataSet.
Please can somebody through light on this?
Before you try to get a chart in a Repeater/ListView, I'd suggest first ensuring that you can have a single chart display on a page.
Have you already selected a charting library? Microsoft's Chart Controls are a free option if you are using ASP.NET 3.5 SP1 or beyond. They have a bit of a learning curve, but can be used to plot the data from a DataSet.
I'd suggest you start by familiarizing yourself with the Microsoft Chart Controls and once you are comfortable with them I think you'll find them easy enough to add to a ListView/Repeater... if not, you can come back and update your question specifying the problems you're having.
For further information check out: Using Microsoft's Chart Controls in an ASP.NET Application.

Does anyone know how to create a interactive graphs using flare or other visualisation classes?

Does anyone know of software or flex/flash/as3 source or visualisation software that could be used to make interactive graphs, where the user would enter a query that would pull data from a MySQL database and the user would build a sunburst or icicle graph by dragging and dropping items into a tree-like structure and they would be able to view the graph? i have attempted to use flare but my programming skills are pretty bad. So far from what i gather, flare only allows the graphing of defined datasets rather than allowing a user to modify the dataset and thus creating a new dataset.
Help?
This is far too big for the scope of a single question. You're going to need to write at least a few different pieces.
1.) Access to the database and a way to view datasets
2.) Control handlers to drag and drop datasets onto your chart object
3.) A chart object that can handle receiving dropped dataset items and render itself accordingly.
There are lots of good charting frameworks out there including Flare, Axiis, Flex charting, Fusion Charts, iLog Elixir. I'm not sure what you're trying to do but any one of those should be able to serve as your charting piece.
We worked on a project that used Flare and Flex. We had to provide the data to Flare in an XML format called GraphML, so we had code to convert the data into the required format in our C# backend, and then we passed it to Flex. There were naff all tutorials for it though, so took some time to figure it out.
There is a properly cool graphing tool (although its commercial) called Kapit. Check out their Diagrammer and Visualizer demos. It could be the case that its worth the spend.
But I agree with Mr Owen, theres some mad scope in that question:)

Adding Images to an ASP .Net Chart Control

I'm not sure if I titled the question correctly so it would be better if I explained what I'm trying to do. I am using the ASP .Net Chart Control to create a line chart showing numbers of trouble calls based on date. What I would like to do is implement a way of annotating the chart with data whereas if there was a spike in trouble calls a line, or asterisk, etc would direct the viewer to "read notes below for an explanation for why the numbers spiked here".
From the samples for the chart control there is a way you can add a bitmap to the chart, however I don't see how that will be effective here because the explanations will come dynamically from a database.
If anyone's done something like this or has some guidance I'd appreciate it.
Thanks!
I don't know that that's possible with an ASP.NET Chart control. Based on your explanation, it sounds like you could add the notes below the chart for a pretty reasonable solution. Just reference the spikes or anomalies by writing the proper date next to each note.
