Greetings,

I'm looking for a graphing program that produces publication-quality graphs, that is capable of interfacing with Excel, and that handles most graph formats (including second or third Y-axes, easy histograms, rose diagrams, 3-D, etc.).  Current recommendations include SigmaPlot (excellent graphics, but expensive and steep learning curve), Delta Graph (heard new version is "buggy"), and Grapher.

Do you have any recommendations?  (I'll be glad to post responses if there is interest.)

Sincerely,
Phil

I am a long time fan of SYSTAT, which aslo does many very useful statistical procedures.  Not cheap, however. - Roy
