milton: that was totally your solution. i just changed it for what hippie dream wanted. hippie dream: you can do ?text to get a better explanation but the basic idea is that the first two parameters in text specify the coordinates at which you put the text and the third param is the text. so, y is there twice because in the first case, y acts as a coordinate and in the second case, y acts as a label.

The code you gave me produced all 0.0 points whereas what I am looking for are the points to correspond to a specific column. I'll be explicit. I am graphing the location of 15 objects numbered 1 to 15. plot(Length ~ Width, data=infiltration1, col="blue", xlab = "Width (cm)", ylab = "Length (m)", xlim=c(0,200), ylim=c(0,30)) Now I would like the points on this graph, rather than dots to be numbers corresponding to the object it represents. Is there any way to "access" the object number from my data to use as in lieu of points? Thanks again. milton ruser wrote: Hi Hippien Dream If I understood, the code below may help you.

I have tried using this: ...,pch="column title" but this merely returns the first letter of the column title, B. Is there any way to do this? I am using R 2.7.1 and Ubuntu 8.04.
