R help - Nov 2010 - Barplot and plot means with confidence intervals in the same plot

I want to obtain  a barplot with error bars and a mean plot with error bars
with other scale on the left in the same plot.   I need help to get the same
x axis (centered) when overlay two plots (barplot2 and plotCI (or
lineplot.CI) with errorbars), with diferent y axis. I use par (new=T) but
the  X axis names are not centered with the figures.

An example of my data:


  mean1<-cbind(55.5,56.42,56.38,55.28)
SD1<-cbind(10,9 ,7 ,3)
x<-rbind(mean1,SD1)
 
colnames(x)<-c("Autumn","Spring","Summer","Winter")
rownames(x)<-c("MeanProts","SD")


  mean2<-cbind(10,15,9,8)
 SD2<-cbind(2,3 ,1 ,5)
y<-rbind(mean2,SD2)
 
colnames(y)<-c("Autumn","Spring","Summer","Winter")
rownames(y)<-c("MeanDNA","SD")

Thanks in advance.


Nacho

Plus if you want two different y-axes on one plot, use axes = FALSE in your
call to plot, and then use the
