Michael, You get this error because you make the subset at the wrong place. Try p <- ggplot(dat[dat$sc_recov %in% c(21,31,41), ], aes(x=bbContag, y=..density..)) + geom_histogram() p + facet_grid(. ~ sc_recov) or subdat <- dat[dat$sc_recov %in% c(21,31,41), ] p <- ggplot(subdat, aes(x=bbContag, y=..density..)) + geom_histogram() p + facet_grid(. ~ sc_recov)

I tried only choosing two groups and it plotted two histograms different than when I tried choosing three. Please advise, Thank you for your continued help, Michael Just On Thu, Oct 2, 2008 at 5:21 AM, ONKELINX, Thierry <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Michael, Use %in% to select multiple cases: dat[dat$sc_recov %in% c(21, 31, 41), ] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ---- ir.

I think my trouble now is lack of basic R knowledge. Cheers, Michael For example, I tried: histogram(~bbContag | sc_recov, data=dat) This would work fine if I could select cases from sc_recov. How can I select more than one case? I know I can do: sc_recov.21 <- dat[dat$sc_recov=21,] but how could I select all cases where sc_recov = 21, 31 or 41?
