I have down loaded both xESOview, mentioned in Linda's reply, and Dview to my VISTA PC.
Both software worked. Dview is a better package, because it can display multiple traces on the same chart.
I noticed that sometime the window to select multiple traces did not show, due to overlapped display area. MSN recently provided a feature called Compatibilioty View to compensate the misalignment of windows on the display for software written for earlier version of IE. I received this update about a month ago, with the Windows automatic update service.
You may try looking for the Compatibility Display setting update from MSN. This update is surposed to improve printing of web pages.
You can also try changing the size of the window, normal view and full size view, and move the display window around to see whether the trance selection window can be uncovered.
I installed Dview as an administrator, and run the program as an adminstrator. My PC is on VISTA home prenium with IE8 Beta browser.

Subject: [EnergyPlus_Support] Hourly Data Viewer
I've always had great success using Dview to quickly combine multiple hourly data output variables onto one graph but now I'm finding that when using my new Windows Vista machine Dview will only graph one variable at a time using the Hourly tab. The legend, which allows selection of other variables has disappeared. Has anyone else had that problem? Are are there any other viewers that can combine output variables?
Thanks,
Chris Buntine
