So don't do that, then.  Why on earth would your y errors not be in the 
same file as the y data themselves?  After all, they were acquired at 
the same time, weren't they?

None short of moving them into the same file, like they should have been 
from the get-go.  If you really have to, you can use tools like the Unix 
"paste" utility to do it on the fly, while keeping the original data in 
their separate places:

   plot "< paste file_data.dat file_yerror.dat" u 1:2:4 w yerrorlines
