Re: st: Re: Differentiate one bar in a graph

My appologies
The problem was, that I plotted my bar graph using one variable and an 
-over( )- option and could'nt figure out how to make the 
"lookofbar_options" color one of the bars in a different color. Thanks 
to Roger Newson I turned to twoway graphs and was able to solve my 
problem wiht overlaying two graphs.
