Event Not Working

I am using Delphi 2005 VCL. I wrote the code below to create a custom component that draws DBCharts on a TScrollBox. The scrollbox can have multiple DBCharts. The code does fine at creating the scrollbox and the DBCharts but the event GetText is not firing. The event ChartTool.OnChange is working.  

I need to be able to get the series name and the X and Y value when the user clicks on the DBChart.  Also I want to add the ability for the user to magnify a selected area of the DBChart. So can some suggest some code? Thanks

mcmahling,

I was curious if the above took care of your problem.  If not I can look further if you can indicate what effect, if anything, resolving the above issue had on the results obtained.
