@SomeGuy, 1.01 – is actually a version number.
1.20 – it's a revision number from Siemens (not major version).
Siemens was used this scheme for another products.
For example:
Windows 1.02 Rel. 2.01
Windows 2.11 Rel. 1.40
Word 3.01 Rel. 5.02.

I do not see there is no Book on Microsoft Chart. There is a bunch of books out there on Microsoft Multiplan and Microsoft Word.

I was wrong about Microsoft Chart having no book. There is a book for Microsoft Chart both for Microsoft Chart 1.0 for Mac and DOS. I found it under a Microsoft Press Spring 1984 Edition on Internet Archive. Internet Archive does not have a Microsoft Chart 1.0 Book. The name of the book is Presentation Graphics On the IBM® PC Creating Visually Impressive Graphics for Corporate and Professional Use By Steve Lambert
