Re: [R] X-axis range

I suspect that your explanation is true, but the ambiguity of what  
format you might be using is the reason that the Posting Guide asks  
that posters offer a reproducible example.

Thanks Peter.

I have tried your approach, and it does not work. I guess it is  
because the
format of the x-axis (and its associated data) has the format of  
date while

numbers like 1998, 2003 etc. are treated as numeric (i.e. not the date
format).

Thank you for your time anyway. :)

Cheers,

Hi all,

I would like to change the x-axis of my graphs from year 1998
to 2008 with an interval of 5 (i.e. 1998, 2003, 2008). Any
help would be greatly appreciated.
