I did find this Podcast page:
http://indesignsecrets.com/indesignsecrets-podcast-173.php

and there's a few links from the Podcast for pie charts, line charts, etc.
further down the page, but they're probably too simple for what you need.


The charting functions in Illustrator are very good, although tricker to
find and use than in Excel.
