Example 35: XYZ scatter chart (loading data from Excel)
This sampe code will plot
a bunch of points in 3D space using X/Y/Z
coordinates.
Data is loaded from an Excel spreadsheet
which must preserve the following columns
(Series, X, Y, Z):

Column Series will serve
to group data in different series (so you
can make each serie looks in different
colors). Values can range from 0 to n.
Steps:
1. Create a new Windows
application project (VB.NET)
2. Add Super 2d/3d Graph
Library to the toolbox pallete and drag it
to Form1.
3. Copy and paste de
following code:
