VB6, problems using MSChart control

Hi guys,

I'm trying to add a bargraph to one of my applications, it's sampling real-time values imported via a USB electrical interface, so im trying to plot values in the range of 0 to 255

What i cant figure out is how to stop the graph re-scaling itself, as rather than seeing an increasing bar with a fixed scale of 0 to 255 what i'm currently getting is the scale altering and the bar boucing up and down off the top of the scale. Any ideas on what i need to change to alter this?

Thanks

For some reason the width of the bar seems to be altering also

I've always had problems with the Chart control... its pretty useless in my opinion. Whenever I had to do charts in VB, I would just integrate an Excel sheet... its charting capabilities are much better.

Unfortunately I cant really do that with this application as it's for use in a car PC so the software must not be dependant on other applications being in place.
