Forget !P.Multi. Try something like this:

Plot, RandomU(seed, 10) * 10, XStyle=9, $
Position=[0.15, 0.15, 0.9, 0.65]
Plot, RandomU(seed, 10) * 10, XStyle=1, $
Position=[0.15, 0.67, 0.9, 0.90], $
/NoErase, XTickformat='(A1)'
Plots, [0.15, 0.15], [0.65, 0.67], /Normal
Plots, [0.90, 0.90], [0.65, 0.67], /Normal

Cheers,

David
