Argument	Description
controlname	The name of the graph from which you want data, or the name of the DataWindow control containing the graph.
graphcontrol (DataWindow control only)	(Optional) A string whose value is the name of the graph in the DataWindow control.
seriesnumber	The number that identifies the series in which you want to label a data point.
datapoint	The data point that you want to label.

Examples

Example 1

These statements set the series and datapoint for the graph gr_1 in the DataWindow control dw_employee.

integer SeriesNbr, ItemNbr

grObjectType clickedtype

// Get the number of the series and datapoint

clickedtype = this.ObjectAtPointer("gr_1", &

		SeriesNbr, ItemNbr)

// Set data label

dw_employee.SetDataLabelling("gr_1", &

		SeriesNbr, ItemNbr, true)

Example 2

These statements set the series and datapoint for the graph gr_1.

integer SeriesNbr, ItemNbr

grObjectType clickedtype

clickedtype = gr_1.ObjectAtPointer(SeriesNbr, &

		ItemNbr)

gr_1.SetDataLabeling(SeriesNbr, ItemNbr, true)
