Hello,

I am going to implement a structure to represent organization diagram;
For this representation, there are 4 entities: Organizations, Persons, Positions and skills:
The relationships between these entities are as follows:
Organization can belong to other Organization;
Person belongs to Organization or many;
Position belongs to one organization;
Skill belongs to one organization;
So I need to represent a shoot of data using dynamic diagram which accepts expanding nodes. For example I click on org I will see its positions, persons, skills and sub organizations and so on.
Could you please, advise me from your experience which tool (free and/or paid) or component is best to use for this issue (I use C# windows application)... I found only this one: http://unifosys.com/...ult.aspx#hchart

Thanks,

Ibrahim

Are you expecting this chart control to do the correct data binding to the structure you are going to implement? e.g. If you add another Position to an organization in your code, the chart control will automatically redraw itself.

Beyond letting the user expand and collapse nodes, are you expecting this chart control to let the user edit the hierarchy? e.g. If the user drag drops on organization into another organization, are you expecting the chart to automatically update the parent child relationships in your structure?

Do you really need chart? Will a simple TreeView suffice?

this is not a prb if I add another Position to an organization in my code, I will re-draw the diagram or use its functionality to do that

no at all because I use Tree view to navigate between all these entities so I have a parent nods with children and n sub children... to represent my data and to do CRUD operation....
I want to let client(responsables and so on) who use my application to have a diagram which gives an easy interface to see and illustratethe orgs and positions ....
