It seems that ArcGIS has its own reasons to show variograms in a non-traditional way, but I find it almost impossible to fit the variograms mannually. You can change the parameters, but it is very hard to see how well they fit. By the way, you can change the lag distance or interval in ArcGIS (it is called "lag size" there).   Cheers,   Chaosheng ------------------ Dr. Chaosheng Zhang Lecturer in GIS Department of Geography National University of Ireland, Galway IRELAND Tel: +353-91-492375 Fax: +353-91-495505 E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Web1: www.nuigalway.ie/geography/zhang.html Web2: www.nuigalway.ie/geography/gis
