Developing Usefull Charts

[foozball3000]

We're working on a charting tool for a client and we soon found out that Excel Charts are plain useless.

Googling for a few hours I found absolutely nothing that can do the job. So, now I'm looking into just coding the thing myself. (How hard can it be?)

We need a chart that can easily zoom in (looking at an isolation of the data) and the ability to drill down into the data (Like a pivot table does).
I still can't believe that there's nothing on the web that can do that...

Any assistance is welcome and much appreciated as I still have no clue how to do it. :erm:

(This has to work on Excel 2003)

Have you tried looking at ProClarity? Last time I saw, it had a pretty nifty web interface with which you could drill into the data...

? Charting ?

You're not very clear on what you want this for.

Where's your data coming from?
Where must the charts be presented? (in Excel, Web interface, other)
How much are you willing to play?
