Need sample code for producing a Project S Curve, similar to those produced by Excel. Any advice would be most appreciated.

Where can I get a copy of Cheetah2.dll? I've also waited and hoped for a guru to build an effective wrapper for DBF access. I attempted to use Purebasic some time ago to write Clipper type code, but finally gave up and switched to MiniGui (xHarbour). I would like to use the power of Purebasic ...

I'm in the process of rewriting some old systems with custom charts. I am experienced with hpgl programming, but need some purebasic "go bys" for code structure.

I also cannot find any useful graphics tutorials for a beginner to use with PB ...

While I continue to slowly explore PB/Cheetah as a Clipper replacement (am satisfied with results so far - due to the the gracious help of forum experts! :D ), I would also like to explore animated graphics.

How is it enabled in ListIcon?
