Without showing a data sample, no one can really do more than guess what you are asking. Among other things, no one "turns" a dataframe "into" a barplot, ever. It would defeat the purpose of collecting the data to begin with. It is also unclear what data the process could strip out, or why you can't use the data again, unless you are attempting to overwrite the dataframe with the bar plot. A barplot is a visual summary of data. So, best to bite the bullet and supply an example. That way we can understand what you are attempting to summarize. As long as it has a similar structure and data types, you can make it up. You would also benefit a great deal from reading up on R and communicating in a manner that the community can follow. Sadly, no specialized community exists without its own specialized jargon and R-help is an intersection of at least two such communities.
