I import the spreadsheet into SAS using SAS/ACCESS to PC Files.

I create a variable to show the various price ranges (by 50-cent ranges).
I do a 'proc gplot', and use the 'needle' interpolation.
I color the needles using "plot y*x=foo" syntax, where foo is the price-range.
And I annotate an image behind the graph, within the axes.
