Thanks Loren,

I've actually found that BAR_PLOT allows you to "adjust" the location
where you start drawing the bar with the BASELINES keyword. I've
written it up but haven't tested it yet.

Plotting all the groups and gradually reducing the groups is a good
idea. I had never thought of that. If my method does not work out I'm
sure to use it =)

Thanks again,
Ryan.
