Subject: Plotting 2D or 3D data and seeing chemical structure

We have a need to be able to display some 2D (and preferably
3D) data in a graph and we need to be able to somehow click
on a point and see the chemical structure associated with
that point.  We have a fairly large number of data points,
currently in SD files and some in PDB format, so structure
import is an issue.  The XYZ data is currently in Excel.

A robust, commercial solution is preferred, but I'd
consider freeware/university-ware if it does this one
simple job well.  Thanks for any leads and/or information
about products you've tried and liked (or tried and
despised).
