I don't use SPSS but following through on your detective work can provide the likely answer. First note that both date numbers are evenly divisible by the number of seconds in a day, i.e. 24*60*60. This suggests that these numbers are seconds since some origin. Since we know "2003/02/11" cor

You need to figure out the "user coordinates" for each panel, so you can put the text within the range that's being plotted. Here's an example: panel.myfitline <- function(x, y, digits=2, prefix="", cex.cor, ...) { usr <- par("usr") res<-panel.smooth(x,y, col.smooth="blue", ...) reg <

The specific code given below is correct but, in general, using POSIXt is not a good idea since it gives rise to subtle problems with time zones. You won't run into problems just converting character data to POSIXlt, as the code below does, but most people who use POSIXlt also use POSIXct and
