Hi All,
I am trying to create a very simple visual web part in VS2010. Initially the chart control wasnt visible in the toolbox so I had to right click/Choose Items and selected System.Web.UI.DataVisualisation.Charting.
The chart control then became visible. I dragged the chart control onto the canvas and I get the following error:
Error Creating Control - Chart1
Object Reference not set to an instance of an object when
The ascx file looks like this:

Any ideas as to why I'm getting this error and what I can do to rectify the problem?
Thanks in advance.
