Hello Peter
I've Products and Categories (category may exceed more than 3)
At present I've hardcoded the values in displaying the graph for three categories , in future, it may exceed,
If i need one graph for all the categories without hardcoding that is dynamically , how do I handle your code in Multi Shape Bar.
Please advise
Thank you.

Hi Venkat,
You can freely use any categories you like. You do not have to hard coded anything. However, if you are using the Multi-Shape Bar chart, you have to find a way to specify the shape for each category.
An example is like (in VB/VBScript "pseudo code"):
Set layer = c.addBarLayer2(cd.Side, 9)
For i = 0 To noOfCategories - 1
dataArray = ... get data for that category ...
Call layer.addDataSet(dataArray, -1, categoryName)
Call layer.setBarShape(cd.PolygonShape(i + 3), i)
Next
Hope this can help.
Regards
