Associating data with a graph
When using a graph in a DataWindow object, you associate axes of the graph
with columns in the DataWindow object.
The only way to get data into a graph in a DataWindow object is through
columns in the DataWindow object. You cannot add, modify, or delete data in
the graph except by adding, modifying, or deleting data in the DataWindow
object.
You can graph data from any columns retrieved into the DataWindow object.
The columns do not have to be displayed.
