Dan, Do not edit the barplot() code. Use the legend() function instead, which enables you to specify the x,y coordinates of the upper left hand corner of the legend box. See ?legend A fair number of the questions that you have had regarding graphics are covered in Chapter 12 "Graphical Procedures" in "An Introduction to R": http://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/R-intro.pdf which is included with the R installation. Another online resource for some graphics assistance would be R News Volume 3 Number 2 for October 2003, which has an article on R's base graphics in the R Help Desk section: http://cran.r-project.org/doc/Rnews/Rnews_2003-2.pdf Notwithstanding all of that, searching the r-help archives is yet another terrific online (and free) resource that you _should_ avail yourself of.
