Creating a graph series with different color types
To use the code in this topic, modify the following parameters:
- pathToShapeFile—Path to shapefile to create the series.
- seriesFieldName—Numerical field used for creating the series.
- pathToOutImage—Output file containing an image of the graph. Refer to the application programming interface (API) documentation for the appropriate format extension in IDataGraphBase.ExportToFile.
To create a graph series with different color types, see the following code:

}
else

};
// Add the fourth bar series to apply the esriGraphColorType.esriGraphColorMatch color mode.
