Hello

I have a doubt i have posted many times the same question but i wouldn't get
the response till now. please solve my problem. i am explaining my problem
again.

i am doing a project in VB.

Input for this application is : Taking a command line parameter as XML
file name and the data must be displayed on a excel chart. which is in a
window.

that means at the command line we enter a xml file name. and read the data
from the file name and display the data in the form of a graph on a excel
chart. the excel chart is with in a window(i.e with in the window the excel
char will be there. just like MS-Excel chart regression tool.

it is very Urgent

Please give a sample code for this.

Regards
Gaffar
