Graphs on drawings

Does anyone have any good ideas on how to create a sketched graph on a drawing in Proe 2001? I attached a drawing with exactly what I would like to do (except I need to graph different numbers), but I don't know how it was created. Any ideas?


I will also need to do the same thing on another drawing, but instead of lines, I need to graph a curve (an exponential function).... Any ideas for this dilemma too?
 
ok, well I figured out I can create an *.ibl file with my data and grid lines, make a new part, create a curve from that file, then add the model + view to my drawing, the take a snapshot of it.


So basically I can create the grid and the curves, but is there a good way to create the axis labels? I'm not sure of the best way to make the text labels line up to the grid lines so that it looks professional.
 
This is what I want the graph to look like:

This is what I have so far:

Is there an easy way to get the text label on the graph, other than creater individual notes for each one and moving them around until they look good? The graph I referenced above looks perfect, I don't think I could align the text that well just with my eye. Any ideas?
