Example

The following code saves the chart layout to a stream, and then loads the layout from the stream:

C#

using System.IO;
//...

  Stream stream = new MemoryStream();

  // Save the chart.
  stream.Seek(0, System.IO.SeekOrigin.Begin);
  chartControl1.SaveToStream(stream);

  // Load the chart.
  stream.Seek(0, System.IO.SeekOrigin.Begin);
  chartControl1.LoadFromStream(stream);

VB.NET

Imports System.IO
'...
    Dim stream As Stream = New MemoryStream()

    ' Save the chart.
    stream.Seek(0, SeekOrigin.Begin)
    chartControl1.SaveToStream(stream)

    ' Load the chart.
    stream.Seek(0, SeekOrigin.Begin)
    chartControl1.LoadFromStream(stream)
