Function ExportChartToGIF(objCSpace, strAbsFilePath, strRelFilePath)
'Get a random filename
Dim strFileName
Randomize
strFileName = Timer & Rnd & ".gif"

'Save the image as a GIF
objCSpace.ExportPicture strAbsFilePath & "\" & strFileName, "gif",
640, 480

'Return the path to the GIF image of the graph
ExportChartToGIF = strRelFilePath & "/" & strFileName
End Function

'Loop through each file in the GIFpath folder
for each gif in objFolder.Files
'Delete GIF files older than 60 minutes
if instr(gif.Name, ".gif") > 0 and _

objFS.DeleteFile GIFpath & "\" & gif.Name, True
end if
next

set objFont = objChart.Title.Font
objFont.Name = "Tahoma"

'call chartgen function

strChartRelPath)
response.write "<IMG SRC=""" & strChartFile & """>" & "<P>"
