Installing the Web Server Control

Installing the PopChart Web Server Control allows you to place a PopChart a PopChart image on your web page as easily as you would a table or any other web server control. A PopChart control that you can drag and drop into any web application will be placed in your toolbox.

To install the PopChart Web Server Control

1. If necessary, copy the PopChartWebCtl.dll and PCNetEmbedder.dll files to some location on your machine.

These files are located in the dev_tools/dotnet_embedder folder of your PopChart installation. Be sure to keep these files in the same location.

2. Start Microsoft Visual Studio.NET.

3. Select Tools > Customize Toolbox (or open the ToolBox, right click and choose Customize ToolBox).

4. Select the .Net Framework Components tab.

5. Using the Browse... button, browse to and select the PopChartWebCtl.dll file.

6. The PopChart component should be listed in the list of components. Make sure that it is checked and click OK to continue.

7. You should now have a PopChart object listed in the General tab of your ToolBox (You can move it to a different tab, such as Web Forms, if you want).
