[R] Remove the border/frame in a dotplot()

[John Kane]

You seem to have posted in HTML and the post is close to unreadable. Also you did not include any data, as far as I can see.

Please supply some sample dataand code. 
 The easiest way to supply data  is to se the dput() function.  Example with your file named "testfile": 
dput(testfile) 
Then copy the output and pasteinto your emal.  Fr large data sets, you can just supply a representative sampl.  Usually,  dput(head(testfile, 100)) will be sufficient.
