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 ;)

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.

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.

What are the chart/map options, without using XML?

I'm looking for a chart/map library that can do a wide variety of graphs and maps, including treemaps, worldmap, line/pie charts etc. The data is going to come from the database, so I am not looking at XML/CSV stuff. It should also have at least minimal interactive options, like zooming etc.
fusioncharts looks good, anybody has other (cheaper) suggestions? Thanks.
I am very fond of Dundas charts and maps, but they aren't free.
Here is a list of Open Source Charting & Reporting Tools in C#
and another list for ASP.Net.
ASP.Net has a Charting Control

What's the best way to generate charts/graphs/data visualizations in Adobe Flex?

I'm new to Flex but need to generate some visualizations of some time-based data. Any recommendations for tools that would work well in Flex?
Be sure to keep an eye on a new project called Axiis that was recently announced by Tom Gonzalez, a prominent Flex developer. It's a data visualization framework that should make custom charting very interesting.
Flex Builder Pro gives you access to the graph visualization library in mx.charts.
If you want an open source solution, you can try Flare.
If you're willing to pay for it (I think it's in the USD $250 range), Flex Builder Pro is definitely the way to go. The graphing and charting power in the libraries is impressive. It's quite simple to generate nice looking, complex graphs with not much coding.
Something other that the builtin mx.charts?
I'm using the standard Flex Charting - which is extremely configurable - we've been able to make it look pretty much how we want it to...
However, also take a look at iLog Elixir - they provide some superb additional charts that you might find useful - particularly the 3D charts. The Radar chart can be very effective in some situations but you really need the RIGHT place to use such a thing. Also they have a good heatmap and pivot charts.

Jamie.
Some very interesting charts, and they have free-with-logo and pay-and-have-the-source versions, is amCharts. They can be used directly in a web page, feeding settings by XML and data by CSV (as services, by javascript or whatever) and also inside Flex projects.
