Origin Ver. and Service Release (Select Help-->About Origin): 8.5.1
Operating System: Windows XP

Hello Folks,

I am interested in using Origin to make plots of XYZ data, and I can get the data in fine. However, I would like to overlay the data with an outline of North America and Alaska similar to what's seen here:

http://www.originlab.com/www/products/GraphGallery.aspx?GID=90

Does anyone know what type of shaprefile is needed to create the outlines? I have been looking all over and can't find a specific type of file needed by Origin to input.

(I have worked through that tutorial, BTW)

Thanks all for your help!

Cheers,
-Ed
