"i can not work because its not numerical."

Hrm. Are you attaching your "data.txt" to the end of your program as __DATA.txt__? The reason I ask is that I don't think that works...

If not, then: Does your file literally contain "DATA\n\n___DATA.txt___\n?" If it does, that may be the problem. I can't be sure, without pulling the module off CPAN, but GD::Graph::Data probably doesnt' know how to handle malformated lines. UPDATE: I tried GD:G:D on a file with and without malformated lines and it didn't seem to complain. Perhaps you could elaborate on the problem?

Lastly, if you shortened your data file example to say 5 or 10 lines, I bet folks would really appreciate the lower wear and tear on their mouse wheels.
