The Problem
	Problem:	You want your program to stand out from the competition.
	Problem:	You want maximum customer impact, with minimum effort.
	Problem:	You want a better way to display data than just a Browse full of numbers.

The Solution
	Insight Graphing! Adding graphs to your Clarion programs has always been easy by using OCX controls. But getting data into the graph has been a lot of hard work. Plus OCX's required extra installation routines, and it's been difficult to add the Graph to a report. Well, Insight Graphing is designed to overcome these limitations. Written entirely in Clarion it allows you to add graphs to your program that require no code whatsoever. You can have multiple graphs on the same window, on the same tab as a browse, or another Tab. You can also have multiple graphs on a report, and adding the graphs to your report is easy. Plus graphs on a window are interactive. Click on them and Drill-down, Print, Zoom and more.  As you move over the graph see the current values highlighted.

The Users Say...
	"Been using the beta template now for a few days and I have to tell everybody how great a product this is. It is so easy to use, it's incredible. Just add it to the global extensions, drop the control template on a form or tab and presto, instant graphs and charts. If you need graphs and charts in your app, look no further." (Ron Childs) "Should have been called... Graphing for Dummies COOL!!!" (Charles Edmonds)
