I happen to heard about the ORACLE product SQLGRAPH, which could be used for drawing graphs using SQL.I haven't used that product myself, as it is available only on VAX-VMS so far.Since you already have ORACLE running you may try SQLGRAPH of ORACLE.

It runs under X-Windows and should be able to handle all your charting needs. It also allows you to monitor the changes made to the data dynamically. Your display can be showing a pie chart based off of tables that are changing and the chart changes at the same time. I have only seen it running on a Sun, but I believe other platforms are available. Hope this helps, tog Terry O. Greenlaw Sheathed within the Walkman, Staff Engineer Wear a halo of distortion.
