Many thanks once more for helping me to solve this.
Gabor - I wasn't even aware of month.abb, so thanks for bringing this useful
trick to my attention!

Try this (and make sure to follow the last line to every message
on r-help which asks for reproducible code in questions):
plot(amazon.sum, xlab = "Month", ylab = "Amazon Sum", xaxt = "n")
axis(1, at = 1:12, substr(month.abb, 1, 1))

Thanks for all the useful information; use of 'c(...)' did the trick,
although in future I'll try to hold the data in a more user-friendly
setup.
I've now got a plot, but have two issues that I can't seem to resolve:
1,
Here is a slight elaboration on Jim's solution:
# create a vector of the names - month.abb is built into R
# This is like: df.names <- c("FetekeJAN", "FetekeFEB", ...)
# but avoids having to write out every name.
df.names <- paste("Feteke", toupper(month.abb), sep = "")
# create a list of the d

you mean you want to plot "SUM" against month? (assuming these12 data frames
are 12 months).
you could first bind them all together using data.frame(), see ?data.frame
which would make it much easier.

One way is to create a list of the dataframes and then use 'sapply' to
extract the values:
df.list <- list(FeketeJAN, ..., FeketeDEC)
plot(sapply(df.list, function(a) a["AMAZON", "SUM_"]))

I'd suggest you first combine the 12 data.frames into one, using
melt() from the reshape package.
makeDummy <- function(.){ # since you don't provide a reproducible
example
data.frame(x=letters[1:10], y=rnorm(10))
}
listOf12DataFrames <- lapply(1:12, makeDummy)
