The only thing I can think is that you are trying to plot
a function rather than a list of x, y, dy triples.
Here is an example adapted slightly from the Guide to
Standard Mathematica Packages Technical Report.
In[10]:=
Needs["Graphics`Graphics`"]
In[11]:=
?ErrorListPlot
ErrorListPlot[{{y1, dy1}, {y2, dy2}, ...}] plots a list of
data with error bars. ErrorListPlot[{{x1, y1, dy1}, ...}]
allows x, as well as y, positions to be specified.
In[12]:=
expdata = Table[ {x, .75 10^(.6 x)+ Random[Real, {-1.0,1.0}]},
{x, 0.2, 1.2,.1}]
Out[12]=
{{0.2, 0.937442}, {0.3, 1.57208}, {0.4, 2.14111},
{0.5, 1.86885}, {0.6, 2.53587}, {0.7, 1.89474},
{0.8, 3.04204}, {0.9, 2.67411}, {1., 2.98289},
{1.1, 4.18244}, {1.2, 4.07424}}
In[13]:=
errdata = Map[ Append[ #, 1.0]&, expdata]
Out[13]=
{{0.2, 0.937442, 1.}, {0.3, 1.57208, 1.},
{0.4, 2.14111, 1.}, {0.5, 1.86885, 1.},
{0.6, 2.53587, 1.}, {0.7, 1.89474, 1.},
{0.8, 3.04204, 1.}, {0.9, 2.67411, 1.},
{1., 2.98289, 1.}, {1.1, 4.18244, 1.}, {1.2, 4.07424, 1.}}
In[14]:=
ErrorListPlot[ errdata ]
Out[14]=
-Graphics-
If you need further help with this problem I would suggest
that you contact Wolfram Research Technical Support
(support at wolfram.com) directly, including details of exactly
what input and data you were using.
I hope this helps.
