Burn down chart

Does anyone know of a simple easy to use program that does burn down charts?
I don't need a fancy package-but I need the capability of doing a burn down
chart. Thanks,

Tell us what a burn down down chart is, perhaps a direction to a website
with an example, and someone may be able to help you.

You can do it yourself in Excel. Here are some links:

I'm interested in the same thing, since my company is interested in using the
Scrum discipline. It's a chart that tracks day-over-day the number of hours
of Actual Work expended vs. Work estimated. So it shows your "burn down"
rate of hours of work remaining.

Presumably the Project Scrum add-in does this, but we don't have VB6.0 and
want a solution that could be deployed to all our employees (and is hopefully
a little more current, based on the Project 2007 issues with the add-in
posted elsewhere).
