Uwe,

Thank you for your reply.  I am still not very clear about the meanings of
the arguments in the stats function.   To make it clearer, quantile() uses
type=7 as default method. I believe this is the method bwplot() uses to
calculate the quantiles. I want to use type=6 method for bwplot(). How do I
achieve that? Thanks again.
