Dear Jim and Bert, Thank your for looking into this for me. I will try to reproduce a part of my data and the plot I have.
Data 1: 53 01 02 -1.28792560381641 53 01 06 -1.1854773963453 53 01 08 -1.55920165458006 53 01 15 -1.29196482429683 53 01 20 -1.06082194329819 53 01 22 -1.15430411152234 53 01 24 -1.14775155345262 53 01 26 -1.19116423468105 53 01 28 -0.924542121164923 53 01 31 -0.869543637175866 53 02 03 -0.764466677206437 53 02 05 -0.707705051599105 53 02 07 -0.750908466521414 53 02 16 -1.6848903649715 53 02 20 -0.760876361940755 53 02 22 -0.803816591115474 53 02 26 -0.818160891300922 53 02 28 -0.831013020625678 53 03 04 -1.06661138281899 till the year 2006.

The length is 1203. The plot is attached. How to label the x-axis is the problem. I will send the code in another email so that the moderator will let it go.
