Hi John
Thanks for that. I thought I recalled seeing the example you mentioned, but obviously it was a different one.
I tried the code you gave me and it worked perfectly. Thanks very much!
Cheers
JP

Try
def myfmt(x,y): return 'myfmt (%1.2f, %1.2f)'%(x,y) ax = subplot(111)
ax.format_coord = myfmt
ax.plot([1,2,3])JDH
