And what have you tried and what is the specific problem that you need help with?

Data are come from serial and read that data and plot a 2D sin wave

Start with the first point, then go through all points in turn and draw lines between them. There are lots of samples of simple drawing programs to be found on the internet.

Sir Please give me some example in VC++,actually
1.In my application data came from hardware like USB or Serial Interface and then I have to read that real time data and plot that data in a sine wave/or any format and show it on dialog.
2.Which control I have to use to display the 2D plot of that data?
Please give me some code example so I can proceed further

You're using pretty out dated technology, C# is easier to use.

There's any number of graphing libraries. However, nowadays, people tend to write stuff in C#, you'd be looking for something pretty old, I reckon. You're basically asking us to do the work for you, though. You should be able to do this, you need to learn how to draw on your form ( which happens in your paint event ), and then you need to write the code to draw your graph, it's that simple.

You're not proceeding at all if you can only work by copying and pasting our code. There is no control built in. You will have to write one. I gave you pointers on how.

Thanks in advance
