Try this: DF <- data.frame(tt = ISOdate(2009, 1:12, 1), x = 1:12, y = 1:12) st <- as.POSIXct("2009-05-01 00:00:00") en <- as.POSIXct("2009-07-01 23:59:59") DF[DF$tt > st & DF$tt < en, ]
If the data in DF is numeric you would probably be better off using a zoo series than a data.frame in which case you can use window.zoo: library(zoo) z <- read.zoo(DF, tz = "") z0 <- window(z, st = st, end = en) plot(z0) See the three vignettes in the zoo package, ?read.zoo and ?window.zoo On Thu, Jun 25, 2009 at 9:19 AM, Paulo E.
