Year 2007 | 14 | 9.9 | 13.1 | 11.5 | 4.9

    String[] myArray= new String[5];

    myArray[0]= "North America";
    myArray[1]= "South America";
    myArray[2]= "Europe";
    myArray[3]= "Middle East";
    myArray[4]= "Asia";

    // Fill the chart with the categories stored in the myArray variable
    chart.SetCategoriesFromArray(myArray);

    // Add the first series "Year 2006"
    float[] myArray2= new float[5];
    myArray2[0]= 12.0f;
    myArray2[1]= 7.5f;
    myArray2[2]= 11.3f;
    myArray2[3]= 9.2f;
    myArray2[4]= 5.3f;

    // Fill the first series with the data stored in the myArray2 variable
    chart.SetSeriesCaption(0, "Year 2006");
    chart.SetSeriesValuesFromArray(0, myArray2);

    // Do the same way for the second series "Year 2007"
