Thanks Henrique - that didn't exactly solve my problem but gave me enough to
do so!

In your solution each row is plotted as a vertical row of points at the
value of 'ind' while I wanted to plot the values against the column numbers,
i.e. 1 to 5.

The solution was to create a vector of column numbers, replicate it and plot
against it, still using 'ind' as the conditioning variable:

> m <- matrix(1:20, c(4,5))

> m
     [,1] [,2] [,3] [,4] [,5]
[1,]    1    5    9   13   17
[2,]    2    6   10   14   18
[3,]    3    7   11   15   19
[4,]    4    8   12   16   20

> pr <- rep(c(1,2,3,4,5), 4)

> d <- cbind(pr=pr, stack(split(m, 1:4)))

> xyplot(pr ~ values|ind, data=d)

Thanks again for the help
