Brian,
For acf chart, how to see the value of confidence
intervals? any reference on the calculation of this?
are they just 1/sqrt(size)? 

Below is my R screen, no information on confidence
intervals.

> summary(acf(rnorm(1000)))
       Length Class  Mode     
acf    31     -none- numeric  
type    1     -none- character
n.used  1     -none- numeric  
lag    31     -none- numeric  
series  1     -none- character
snames  0     -none- NULL
