Just place Chart Viewer on the form the DataCubeGrid is located on, a few mouse clicks and your data is transformed into useful and meaningful information.

Report Sharp-Shooter
New: Report Manager editor makes reports design process much easier and faster: a double click on the ReportManager component invokes a special editor that allows editing collections of reports and data sources.
