Re: [Gnuplot-info] Problems generating multiple plots using stdin

[Kevin O. <rko...@gm...>]

I knew this was going to be embarrassing! Why did I not notice that the
columns after the first were all the same (and were the data from the last
column.

Thanks very much, Ethan! Now I just need to figure out why I am pulling the
wrong data out of the DB.Other than keeping it in an array, it's the same
code I used to write it to a temp file, so I am guessing that I am simply
over-writing the prior data with the "new" data as I load the data going
backwards.

Thanks again!
