You did not specify a technology you want to use, so this answer is a general answer (see my comment to the question). But before, one little tip: i would suggest you to use SearchBox[^] (on the right-top corner of this site) before you ask a question. Please, read QA rules[^], especially - rule no. 4.

Crystal report does not supports data presentation in a graph form. Crystal report supports grouping to display hierarchical data in a similar way how it displays a tree control.
Grouping Data Hierarchically[^]

Also, you can display hierarchical data in a TreeView control too.
Walkthrough: Displaying Hierarchical Data in a TreeView Control[^]
How to print treeview?[^]

But i would suggest you to create custom graph, for example: Building an oriented graph in a graphical application[^]
