bernard,

Look up ReadList for importing data and ListPlot for plotting it. Both are 
detailed in the help menu and in the holy tome. You might need to set the 
RecordLists->True option if you have columns of x-y data.

data=ReadList["c:/temp/econ.dat", Number, RecordLists->True]
ListPlot[data]

Hope this helps,
rajdeep
