Hi Hurr, The problem is with the quotes in xlab="". In your version the quotes are not ASCII double quotes but some sort of "smart" quotes. Either your email client has substituted them or more likely, you are editing your code in something like MS Word and cutting and pasting the result into R. Try just typing this in R:
plot(x1,x2,type="l",xlab="") and the first error should not appear. The error with "mtext" is the same problem. The reason that the x axis label is in the wrong place is that it is not suppressed in the initial plot.
