I am using DataGridView for displaying Excel spreadsheets, all of that is fine until I got to the sheet that contains a bar graph as well as some data. I cannot figure out how to display the graph and need some help.

What I have tried:

Extensive search on the net, although maybe there are better search terms.

You can't. The DGV is not Excel. It doesn't support showing any graphs like Excel does.

You'll have to use a charting library and feed it the data to create a new chart in your code/app and show that.
