This example shows the basic functionality and ease of use of the ASP.NET AJAX Chart. Telerik ASP.NET Grid on the left is used for the basic data display for each customer and clicking its rows presents additional data in the chart by only changing a single parameter in its data source. All other configuration of the chart is done with a few properties in its markup. Easy as pie, or bar in this case.
