Seems this guy doesn't know how to use Excel charts!! Most
of his problems
could be easily overcome with proper formatting. For
example....
Excel Historgram
"The choice of class intervals or bins is rather
bizarre, the number of digits displayed is atrocious, and
it is not at all clear what tick marks these labels apply
to."
Format it properly and these problems disappear!

if you are into charts and hard core stats then Excel
abilities are fairly
dubious.
Have a peep here as an intro

Subject: Excel Charts-Publications
Hello All,
I ran into several researchers-chemists, earth scientists,
and
engineers-who think Excel charting is very poor and not of a
publishing
quality. I asked each to show me how or what it can not do
but none did.
Anyone here can shed some light on this issue. Is it true
that Excel
quality graphs is not of publications quality? Is it true
that you cannot
"beautify" excel charts enough to be of
publication quality? In my
experience, you can do anything with excel and sure can
"beatify" those
charts as much. And I think those who don't like Excel
charts basically have
very little knowledge of the use of those charts.
Any input is greatly appreciated it. EK
