using the CHART feature in reportsmith in a hosted enviroment

[brianewo]

I have tried to use the CHART function in reportsmith, but i get the error message that i need to open Word and install the Chart 97 feature.

Well this would work just fine IF i wasn't in a hosted enviroment. My database os located on the severs at a ADP location. because of some liscening issues, they wont install the program on their server.

Has anyone else had this problem, and IF so have you been able to work around it?

I don't have ReportSmith in front of me but in Tools|Options there are several settings for charting. One is for an internal chart engine. Try that setting.

I hope this helps...

Well all it took was for ADp to loadit on THE server. and that was about it.
