Hi Jakob,

",sep=",",header=TRUE,stringsAsFactors=FALSE)   
dat1$TIME<-as.POSIXct(dat1$TIME,format="%d.%m.%Y %H:%M:%S") 
library(zoo) 
z1<- zoo(dat1[,-1],dat1[,1])
 plot(z1,plot.type="single",col=1:2,xaxt="n")
tt<- time(z1)
axis(side=1,at=tt,labels=FALSE)
 ix<- seq(1,length(tt),4) #can change here
fmt<- "%b-%Y"
labs<- format(tt,fmt)
axis(side=1,at=tt[ix],labels=labs[ix],tcl=-0.7,cex.axis=0.7)
legend("topleft",colnames(z1),lty=1,col=1:2)

#subset
z2<- zoo(dat1[1:5,-1],dat1[1:5,1])

Hope this helps.

A.K.

Hey Arun,
thank you so far, maybe you can tell me 2 more things:
1st-how to deal with the xlim - right now R just makes me 2 dates on x-axis with Dez31 and Feb28 - how to define the interval.
2nd-I am plotting multiple lines with col - is it possible to generate a legend with the name/header of the column from data?
Would be nice, if you could help me!
Thanks
Jakob
