Dear Stephen, You need the data in long format. Try melt()ing it first.
River.Mile <-c(202, 198, 190, 185, 179, 148, 119, 61) TSS <- c(1:8) DOC <- seq(2, by= 0.6, length.out=8) z <- data.frame(River.Mile, TSS, DOC) zMelt <- melt.data.frame(z, id.vars = "River.Mile") library(ggplot2) ggplot(zMelt, aes(x = River.Mile, y = value, colour = variable)) + geom_point() HTH, Thierry PS your example was not reproducible as you forgot library(lattice) in your code. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ---- ir.

We are mammals, and have not exhausted the annoying little problems of being mammals. -K.
