hi ... take a look at

http://www.albany.edu/~msz03/sta552/ovh/c5_probability.pdf

and scroll through the pages

you'll find a bunch of normal curves (e.g. pages 21, 24, 28, 33)

is this similar to what you want ... let me know if it is (most of the curves are "SAS-generated")

if so, I'll see if I can find the SAS code used to create the charts
