How to add Nevron Chart control to Data Dynamics ActiveReports for .NET?

When creating a new Active report file you can drop Nevron chart control into the report area. This control becomes a control of type CustomControl. The CustomControl class has a property called Control, which returns System.Windows.Forms.Control. In Format event handler (for example) we can cast the returned value of Control property to NChartControl and continue to setup the chart control.

For example:

[C#]
System.Windows.Forms.Control control = customControl1.Control;
  
NChartControl nChartControl1 = (NChartControl)control;
  
NChart chart = nChartControl1.Charts[0];
  
NBarSeries bar = (NBarSeries)chart.Series.Add(SeriesType.Bar);
bar.Values.Add(4);
bar.Values.Add(1);
bar.Values.Add(2);
bar.Values.Add(3);

[VB.NET]
Dim control As System.Windows.Forms.Control = CustomControl1.Control
  
Dim nChartControl1 As NChartControl = CType(control, NChartControl)
Dim chart As NChart = nChartControl1.Charts(0)
  
Dim bar As NBarSeries = CType(chart.Series.Add(SeriesType.Bar), NBarSeries)
bar.Values.Add(4)
bar.Values.Add(1)
bar.Values.Add(2)
bar.Values.Add(3)
