    The following example applies an image to the left chart wall: 
    Dim chart As Chart = CType((m_ChartControl.Charts(0)), Chart)
Dim fillEffect As FillEffectBase =  chart.Wall(ChartWallType.Left).FillEffect 
fillEffect.SetPattern(HatchStyle.DiagonalBrick, Color.White, Color.Black)
    Chart chart = (Chart)(m_ChartControl.Charts[0]);
