We have a customer that we calculate quartiles for (CF6.1, SS2K) and in that application we draw line graphs and bar charts using jFreeChart, which I believe can do boxplots although we don't currently use that part of it. Worth a look if you don't mind doing Java. Quartiles are not what you said. In colloquial use they are what Jochem said, but our customer says a) it is one value, not a set of values b) the algorithm used by Excel is wrong As you know, the customer is always right. We do it their way, with some CF and SQL which is rather slow but not very complicated.
