Dear collegues.

I try to find a way to visualize some probability distributions, looking like this:

(example)
Code: 
<TABLE style="WIDTH: 120pt; BORDER-COLLAPSE: collapse" cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width=160 border=0 x:str><COLGROUP><COL style="WIDTH: 60pt" span=2 width=80><TBODY><TR style="HEIGHT: 12.75pt" height=17><TD style="BORDER-RIGHT: #ece9d8;

this distribution is, let s say, available for every month. i want to show that distribution over history, so i want to create something like this: http://www.graphicinvestor.com/econo/UK/INFLATION/Fanchart_200608.gif

by now, i calculated the quartiles (25, 50 and 75%), but now i do not really how to continue to get where i want to.

anyone has an idea / hint how to continue?
any help would be great! I guess it s more a statistical problem...
