The link you posted is used by the Microsoft Foundation Class (MFC) which is a set of c++ functions that wrap the win32 api functions. In order for that program to be useful to you, you must have one of the Microsoft compilers that supports MFC and those compilers are not free (about $900 USD or more depending on the version you want).

i found the ZedGraph program before. Now i am using visual c++6 cause this is the program that we are limited to used. Is it can be used for ZedGraph? What was i found is that it only can be used for . net, VB and so on..is it true? Hope can hear more from you, thanks..

If you have VC++ 6.0 then you can use MFC. The best place I know of to get MFC code is here

MFC is not easy to use and you need to be comfortable with c++. There's about a year's learning curve to learn MFC pretty well. If you go to that site and enter "Plotting" in their search engine you will get a list of sever complete programs they have on file.

Yes, when many people speak of "compiler" they also mean the IDE.
