    The TppTeeChart component has a Chart property that provides access to the
    TeeChart. So you should be able to use standard TeeChart methods. Contact
    tee chart tech support if you need help on how to dynamically create chart
    series. That is a tee chart question.

    I know how to add add a series at run-time but my problem is that i want to
    do this in the calc tab of the designer. (runtime). There i can't access
    property's and method's of the chart component.

    so my question is: How can i make them visible/useable in the designer so
    that the enduser can use it in his reports?

    For future reference, please post RAP related questions to the RAP
    newsgroup.

    You can extend RAP with custom functions the do whatever need. See article
    below...

    --------------------------------------------------
    Article: Extending RAP
    ---------------------------------------------------

    There are two very simple and powerful techniques to extend the capabilities
    of RAP infinitely. These are summarized below and covered in more detail in
    the RAP.hlp online help. Demos and tutorials are installed to
    RBuilder\Demos\RAP. The tutorial text is located in RAP.hlp.


    1. RAP Pass-Through Functions

    These are functions that appear in the Language tab of RAP's Code Toolbox.
    These functions are written in Delphi and can be called from RAP. RAP's
    pass-through function architecture enable's developers to add new built-in
    functions to RAP's code toolbox.

    2. Extend RAP's RTTI

    RAP's Run-time Type information defines what classes and properties can be
    accessed via RAP. By default the published properties of any class that is
    registered with Delphi's RegisterClass procedure is recognized by RAP. In
    addition many of the public properties and methods of ReportBuilder classes
    are exposed.
