Deepayan, thank you very much for your response.
I have a general question. And please remember - I am really just a
beginner in R.
Is it truly the case that in order to build quite a basic bar chart
with value labels attached to it I have to be a true R graphics guru -
because the only way to do achieve what I am trying to achive is to
modify the underlying R function (panel.barchart)?
Really?
Dimitri
