Hi All
 
I'm fairly new at R so there might be on obvious solution to my problem
with calling the lattice function xyplot( ) from my own function.
 
The function script is given below.
 
The problem is that the xyplot() call does not do anything! I just get a
blank graphics window and no error messages.
 
The simple plot() function call works fine when not commented out so I
know the data is getting in OK and when I run the the same xyplot()
function call outside this function substituting the actual data frame
then xyplot( ) works fine. Comparing the data summary both inside and
outside the function showed that the data is identical. I put the
"require('lattice')" statement in because I thought it might help but it
did'nt. 
 
Any help as to why xyplot() is behaving differently to plot() and what I
need to do to get the function working would be much appreciated.
 
thanks
 
Steve
