As we all know, WX is going belly up in a few weeks. Someone on one of my other threads wants to know if there's a way to threadsuck the old stuff. Any one know how?

Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
Vortex,
fyi, the shutdown is in 11 days. We don't have weeks now.
The only info I know is this and I think this is for admins (of the forums) only:
If I insert a "Microsoft Graph" object in Publisher 2003, does that produce a higher resolution graph than Excel? If not, is there free charting/graphing software that will produce high resolution graph/charts? (Pie chart, and smoothed line graph.) (Pasting an Excel Chart into publisher still produces a low graphic quality object.)
Does anyone know of any wireframe tools? I just use Visio, but someone asked at work, and I was wondering what's out there on the market.

I've always just used whatever vector program I have on hand - Visio, Illustrator, OmniGraffle. I've also played around with doing quickies online with Mockingbird ( [link] ), which is dead simple and makes sharing really easy; I'm not sure I'd want to use it for any really big projects. Never been interested in paying enterprisey prices for a dedicated tool, but then I tend to use wireframes more as a sketching phase than a must-document-every-step-of-every-interaction thing.
To rephrase my question: I need simple graphing software (Pie charts, line charts xy scatter, nothing that fancy) that can export high resolution images (TIF would be ideal but png or non-lossy Jpegs would be fine). Price cheap to free. My google fu seems weak in this area.
ita, I've used OmniGraffle, but it is Mac OS and iOS only.

You can do virtually any type of statistical graphics with the free R package [link] but the interface is not for the faint of heart.
Thanks for the suggestions. I get the impression she'll have to go forward with Visio for now.
Under too tight a dealine for a learning curve right now. I have two Excel charts I need to recreate at high resolution for publication. One workbook, one sheet two small data sets, too fairly simple graphs, though with specific requirements, (B&W, high resolution, will be printed small "small" unspecified, but say a fifth to a third of a book page.) Then again. free or cheap, high resolution, and user friendly is asking for a lot. The "pick two" rule. I guess the next step is: find someone with decent graphing software and beg them to redo my two Excel charts for me.
