  Dim I                                  ' Declare variable.
  DrawWidth = 1                          ' Set starting pen width.
  PSet (0, ScaleHeight / 2)              ' Set starting point.
  ForeColor = QBColor(5)                 ' Set pen color.
  For I = 1 To 100 Step 10               ' Set up loop.
    DrawWidth = I                        ' Reset pen width.
    Line - Step(ScaleWidth / 10, 0)      ' Draw a line.
  Next I
End Sub
