The way its setup now is using a couple of VFP tables, some HTML code inside one of the tables, a webservices..blah blah blah. Anyway the script is held in the data, and so are the 'rules' on where to go next. Problem is that when there is a change, a programmer has to go out and do all this manually - and because of its desgin, its a very time consuming and confusing thing to do.

Yeah I've thought of that too. The problem, I think, that I would have is that I'm trying to allow the user to create the chart, then when they click a button - the data for the tables would be generated. I was going from tables to chart - then I can see how this might be helpfull, but unfornutaly I'm going the other direction.....
