Hi Sam,
For my knowledge if only you write some subroutine which repeats smoothing algorithm and calculate intermediate points yourself. See for example

Sergei, thanks for the comment. Yes, you are right. And I did find out that Microsoft uses a cubic spline algorithm, for which you can download a free software routine on the web. It worked out very well.
