Sorry, I posted via Nabble using the 'raw' command, which got stripped out it seems. Here's a small sample of the data... plant,aphid,1,2,3,4 pumpkin,1-2,0.065566,0.057844,0.08,0.086879 pumpkin,1-3,0.107612,0.097272,0.11663,0.160499 squash,1-4,0.126939,0.115003,0.140275,0.188829
columns named 1,2,3,4 etc. correspond to the weight of an aphid after that many days on that plant. I want to be able to plot the growth of all aphids on one plot, grouped by plant.

Do I need to transpose my data first, so dates are in one column? If I do that, how do I keep the plant grouping associated with each aphid?
