Including a data table in a graph

Is there an option to include a 'data table' (to show values) as part of the
graph - as is available with Excel?No, this option is not supported by any of the RS rendering extensions
available out of the box (HTML, Excel, PDF, etc.).
There are two options here:
* since the chart data work very similar to a matrix, you can just an
additional matrix to the report. The equivalent for category groupings in
charts is dynamic column groupings in matrix. Series groupings are dynamic
row groupings in matrix. Series values (i.e. static series groupings) in
charts are static row groupings in matrix.
* Technically, the processing engine exposes two types of information
through the RenderingObjectModel: the rendered chart image and the
underlying chart data. Someone could write a rendering extensions which
renders both, the image and the underlying data.
Option 1 (adding the matrix) is much less work and easier to do.

expand the graphing functionality -- and the ability to integrate
full-featured third-party graphing components like Dundas -- with the 2005
version.

tools out there. The charting tool, is actually fairly good for a 1.0
release.
