string[] x = new string[dt.Rows.Count];

decimal[] y = new decimal[dt.Rows.Count];

for (int i = 0; i < dt.Rows.Count; i++)

{

x[i] = dt.Rows[i][0].ToString();

y[i]=Convert.ToDecimal(string.Format("{0}.00",dt.Rows[i][1].ToString()));

}

BarChart1.Series.Add(new AjaxControlToolkit.BarChartSeries {Data=y });
