Hi Janet, You may also check library(xts). mod.sage <- read.table(text="date year month day wy yd wyd modQ 1 1965-10-01 1965 10 1 1966 274 1 0.3341630 2 1965-10-02 1965 10 2 1966 275 2 0.3223247 3 1965-10-03 1965 10 3 1966 276 3 0.3459057 4 1965-10-04 1965 10 4 1966 277 4 0.3841630 5 1965-10-05 1965 10 5 1966 278 5 0.3423247 6 1965-10-06 1965 10 6 1966 279 6 0.3209057 7 1966-10-04 1966 10 4 1967 277 4 0.3341630 8 1966-10-05 1966 10 5 1967 278 5 0.3223247 9 1966-10-06 1966 10 6 1967 279 6 0.3109057",sep="",header=TRUE,stringsAsFactors=FALSE)
