Hi bedibra,
You can save your vertical profile plot as a template, then you can make the plot by plotm x-function. 
Try the following snippet:
img2m -r 2;  //Convert the image to data matrix
mname$=%H;   //matrix name
plotm im:=[mname$]!1 plot:=220 ogl:=[<new template:=myVProfile>];  //Plot the matrix using the template
imageprofile;  //Activate as a image profile
pname$=%H;     //graph name
speedmode sm:=off; //turn off speed mode
page.active = 1;  //activate the main layer
VLine.x=100;   //position of 1st line
VLine1.x=150;  //position of 2nd line
window -a Book1;  //activate the worksheet
worksheet -s 1 1 1 1;  //select a cell
insertGraph gname:=%(pname$) embed:=1;  //embed the graph to the cell
Works?
