A graph window opens momentarity (unusually large, compared to customary gretl plots) and then you get the following dialog box Failed to open file 'C:\Documents and Settings\John Paravantis\Application Data\gretl\gretltmp.png': No such file or directory after which you get another similar dialog box. When you click OK in the second dialog box the graph closes! Incidentally, all other graphs plot OK. John John Paravantis wrote:
