Public Property YValueType As ChartValueTypes

Visual Basic (Usage)	Copy Code
Dim instance As Series Dim value As ChartValueTypes   instance.YValueType = value   value = instance.YValueType

public ChartValueTypes YValueType {get; set;}

Return Value

A ChartValueTypes enumeration value that determines the type of Y-value data stored by the series. Defaults to Auto.

Determines the type of data stored by the series, and is normally set to either Auto or DateTime.

The IntervalType property of axis labels, tick marks, and grids determines the interval type.

This property can also be used to determine the data type that the Y-values are bound to.

It is possible (although rare) to plot date expressions as the values of data points. Setting this property to ChartValueType.DateTime will allow for Y-values to be entered as DateTime values, and not as Double types (dates and times are stored by .NET as Double types internally).
