This is a bit easier to do with ggplot2: df <- data.frame( trt = factor(c("a", "b", "c")), mean = c(4,6,8), se = c(0.1,0.3,0.5) ) install.packages("ggplot2") library(ggplot2) qplot(trt, mean, data=df) qplot(trt, mean, data=df, min=mean - se, max = mean + se, geom="pointrange") Hadley -- http://had.co.nz/ ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
