I believe TeeChart includes the ability to create Gantt charts. Add a TeeChart to a report, open the editor and add a new series. There is a Gantt option in the TeeChart gallery in the standard charts tab.
We do not have any examples of creating Gantt charts with TeeChart. I was able to easily create one using the DBDEMOS database however by adding a Gantt style chart to the series list and using the ItemsTotal and AmountPaid as the start and finish values. Datasource set to datapipeline of course.
You might check the Steema web site for code examples of using the Gantt series.
What I need to do is to create a Gantt Chart by connecting to a database specifying the project name on the vertical axis, and each project has a start date and end date.
So the Gantt Chart will be the project names on the vertical axis, eg. 30 projects, each project has the date range on the horizontal axis.
Although we are by no means experts at using TeeChart (we simply provide the ability to use TeeChart inside reports), it looks fairly straight forward on how to create a Gantt chart like the one you describe. Something like the following...
1. Add a DBChart to the report. 2. Add a Gantt chart to the series list. 3. Click the Series tab then the Data Source tab. 4. Select DataPipeline from the combo box at the top. 5. Select the proper fields for each option. (i.e. start date, end date, labels, etc.)
Sorry, could you elaborate a bit. Yes, I can create a Gantt Chart now but have no idea to define the bottom axis date start and date end of the Gantt Chart Series at run time. I can set at design time but not run time.
TeeChart is a product produced by Steema. Our goal is to enable TeeChart to be used inside the ReportBuilder Environment.
You can experiement with TeeChart outside of ReportBuilder. To learn how to use TeeChart, consult the TeeChart documentation, demos, etc and contact Steema tech support with questions.

Yes, I found that.
Is there any code/sample/tutorial to create the gantt chart?

Can you send me your sample please?
