Assumptions:

1. We are iterating at level 1 and not doing depth traversal on each element. 2. We do not parse the ChartDocument when we do not really have any data. 3. When comparing the column names we ignore case. 4. The column numbers are zero based. 5. The order of matching the series to a column is based on the following priority list. a. If we find a column number specified in a series tag and it is correct then we use that column number for the given series element. b. If we find a column number and it is incorrect AND we have a correct column name specified, then we use the column name to find the column position for the given series element. c. The series element position in the XML doc is used if we do not have a column position or column name specified for the given series element.
