  I managed to do this in between my message and your reply ;-) so I must be on 
the right track.  Thanks (this worked ok for me).

  Yes, Plot needs x-y data. This is what I did: I fed the line I made with 
"Construct" to "Map" and mapped my temperature data onto the line.  To extract 
the correct values I used "Mark -> Compute -> Unmark" to extract the correct 
positions from the line and data.
  My next question is regarding the Plot module.  I extracted the y-position 
values and the corresponding temperatures from the mapping.  This is what I 
wanted.  But "Plot" plots the positions on the x (horizontal) axis and the data 
on the y (vertical) axis.  How would I go about about switching the order, i.e. 
positions on the y (vertical) axis and the data on the x (horizontal) axis?

Thanks, Chris
