Hi Rigil,
DIAdem can do this, though it's not obvious unless you know where to look. Actually in DIAdem 11.0 and beyond (which goes Beta on April 1, 2008) you can just drag the text channel and the numeric channel onto a new graph. In prior versions you need to drag the numeric channel by itself onto the graph-- this will plot the numeric channel against its index (1, 2, 3, ...). You then configure this curve to display vertical bars. Then you need to drag the same numeric channel onto the graph again, and this time configure this second curve to be "Line and symbol". Look in the "Curve parameters" dialog of this second curve, select the "Labels" tab, then the "Text" tab, then check the "From channel" checkbox and select the text channel to pull the X axis labels from. You then need to click on the "Position" tab and choose "At the X coordinate of the curve point with a fixed Y position". Finally I'd suggest setting the Y offset to -5 (vertical offset, measured in %, relative to the X axis).
Whew! You can see why we wanted to make that easier. Here's an example that does this and also rearranges the numeric values in descending order, as they appear on your graph.
