re: #89 SteveMcGazi
When I took my first computer class, we were taught FORTRAN. That was at Drexel in 1983. In 2013, I was back to school, and I had to retake Comp Sci. It was far more useful because they taught us how to use Office to make documents with all the things you would need to do in a research paper, spreadsheets and powerpoints. Infinitely more useful.
I used to create graphs by using a set of FORTRAN subroutines to plot pixel by pixel.
No I just run the SQL query and send it to the MS Chart Controls. Colors. 3D! PIE CHARTS!
