Here is a good site for map citations:
http://library.mcmaster.ca/maps/mapcite.htm I think one of the examples
below might work ... Maybe the "dynamically generated" form since it isn't a
published map - just something you created in ArcView. Hope this helps.

Format: Data Producer. Name of database or source. "Title of map or table."
[format]. Person who generated map or table; Software package used to
generate map or table; <URL of main or first site page>. (Date map or table

population 20 years and over by highest level of schooling as % of Total
Population...Hamilton [172 areas]." [map]. Generated by Cathy Moulder; using
E-Stat; <http://estat.statcan.ca/>. (July 20, 2004).
