R help - Apr 2004 - plot & easy question

Dear all

I guess I have a quite simple question
I do not have any problem to plot the data (daily averages)in different 
plots as monthly time series (for example with a for -loop over the 
different months). My problem begin when I want to represent always as a 
time serie 1999 data (from june) and 2000 data (until june) in a single 
plot(always as daily averages). Actually I would like to see the winter 
data in the middle of the plot.

Do you have an advice? Thank you for your answer
Mike

Assuming the same Y scale will work for all your data, 
the plot statement plots columns 4 through 8 with no marker at
the points so the axes get set up correctly.  Then matplot adds to it.

dd <- ISOdate( data$year, data$month, data$day )
plot( rep(dd,5), as.matrix(data[,4:8]), type="n" )
matplot( dd, data[,4:8], type="b", add=T )
