Hi shikha,

You have to do this to have two decimals at maximum:

Code: Select all

tChart1.Axes.Left.Labels.ValueFormat = "#.##";
Ans this to force two decimals:

Code: Select all

tChart1.Axes.Left.Labels.ValueFormat = "#.00";

whts the difference between these-
tcStraAssessRC.Axes.Left.Labels.ValueFormat = "#.##"

and

tcStraAssessRC.Axes.Left.Labels.ValueFormat = "0.00"
