Is there a charting software / ad in for PowerPoint which will give you total
control of all aspects of chart creation. We have been asked to create
charts which seem out of the scope for PPT 2002, like controling bar
thickness with data values, plus actual bar height with diffferent data
values. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

THX!

There are some options presented here, although not all that easy:

No, it's not easy, but I have managed to write the code to plot 3 custom
charts on a page.

BUT.....

There are some formatting issues I still need to resolve, and I
have Googled my fingers to the bone with no success.

When the charts are finished plotting, they are extremely distorted and
out of proportion. If I left-click in the plot area, they will snap onto
place properly.

Does anyone know the code I need to add to make this transition with
automatically?

Many thanks for any help.
