Updating an old install and Redistibutable Microsoft Chart Control 6.0 is not in 2014

Hello,

I am updating an older install (actually several) from 2012 to 2014 (A MS update broke something and they all need rework) and noticed that Microsoft Chart Control 6.0 was no longer available as a redistributable. (Yes I know MSChart is not great, I have been trying to get the dialog that uses it removed from our products since 2007, just running into marketing inertia, stubbornness).

So does anyone know a way around this? Can I get redistributable added back in, download a package from Installshield to add it back? Thoughts?

I realize I could go the non-kosher route of just including mschrt20.ocx to our install and it would work, but I really want to do this correctly.

Thanks
