I'm looking for some type of program that can create custom pie charts. I've never really done this sort of thing so was hoping someone would know of this type of software?

Cleo, is OpenOffice compatible with MS office or are they 2 different programs that won't accept each others files?

OpenOffice and the Mac port NeoOffice are based on the same open code base and all compatible with Micro$oft office but are free although they do take donations.

open office - the best free program ever IMHO.

I've been using it for about 3 years now, it's definitely a very good program and the price is unbeatable.

I've never made a pie chart with it before but just for the hell of it I just now opened it up and whipped one up in about 40 seconds.

FILE>>NEW>>SPREADSHEET>>>Input Data>>>Hilight data>>>INSERT>>CHART...>>> then use the wizard, select chart type (pie chart) and "CREATE" and there it is, full customizable too.

I mainly just use it for writing, and business documents of course.
