Working with datasets (TDataset) fieldnames or Displayname??

I am exploring the possibility for my users to setup charts directly based on some dataset made available...

So the editing is to be done using TChartEditor and using the unit "DBEditCh".

When adding series and associating them with dataset datasources it seems that the "columnnames" shown in the dialog is fieldnames - is it possible in anyway to use the fields DisplayLabel property. My fieldnames in my datasets is not allways so descriptive that the enduser will be able to use them...

Thanks in advance for any advice.

Regards
Christian

Hi Christian,

I'm afraid this is not possible for now. I'll add your request to our wish-list to be considered for inclusion in future releases.
