I have been trying to use the GRAPH.VBX component in VB and am trying
to plot a curve with the X axis values going from 5000 to 7000.  The X
values labels go from 0 to 8000 and I haven't been able to find a way
to override this.  Any ideas would be  appreciated.  Or the
recommendation of another graph VBX/OCX would be desired.

The following was stripped from my working code:
  .
  .
'Load the values into the X-axis from a field in tblFltData
   tblFltData.MoveFirst
   graData(idxSetup).ThisPoint = 1
   For cntPointNum = 1 To graData(idxSetup).NumPoints
      graData(idxSetup).ThisPoint = cntPointNum
      graData(idxSetup).XPosData = tblFltData(lstX.List(lstX.ListIndex))
      tblFltData.MoveNext
   Next cntPointNum
  .
  .

for i = 0 to graph.NumPoints step <how close you want the labels to be>
        graph.ThisPoint = i
        graph.LabelText = cstr(<label value>)
next i

If you use the same graph several times without unloading it you will
need to clear the graph data and label data in between uses. Just make a
loop to step through all the ThisPoint's and set them to null.  That is a
good place to use AutoInc.

Good Luck

: The graph.vbx that ships with VB is a 'light' version, that doesn't,
: amongst other things, allow you to control the x axis fully. I think
: you'll have to get hold of the full version.

I have experienced the same problem on the software I am developping.  I
agree with Ken and I strongly suggest that you purchase the Commercial
version of the Graphics Server.  Pinnacle has made a control, it's very
fast and the commercial version allows you to do lots of things you
thought impossible before...  We switched and would never go back to the
old version...

Hope this helps...
