Hi there, I hope your help.

This is my asp net code:

Chart1.Series[DateTime.Now.ToString()].YValueMembers = "Date_time";

...

<Series>
<asp:Series Name="<%= DateTime.Now.ToString() %>" ChartArea="ChartArea1">
</asp:Series>
</Series>

I have this error, can you help me?
thanks

The problem you have is that DateTime.Now will return the current datetime struct when called. So if you call it twice you will generally get two different values depending on exactly when each call was made. Since you are trying to use that is an index for some reason or another it can’t find the index you previously created with a different DateTime.Now value.
