Hmmmm, that's an interesting thought! I added the console line you
requested and get the following. I see that the properties section on the
right DOES NOT list "_data" which puzzles me:
:
When I drill down on that first line and review the html, I can see the
dialog data is set to my array and loaded with the data I am trying to
chart (dialogId = DLG1 so the development tool renames it accordingly):
DLG1_DlgObj._data = [['Type', 'Cost'],['CUSTOMER RETURN', 1405],
['INTER-COMPANY', 100],
['REWORK', 200],
['SCRAP', 100],
['SETUP SCRAP', 110],
['VENDOR RETURN', 5],
['WARRANTY RETURN', 800]];;
Please let me know your thoughts as I am running out of time to get this
completed. Boss wants to purchase a charting tool and quite honestly, the
Google Charts are much prettier and I would prefer we go this route.
Thanks again for all your help!
