On the Options menu select Extents/Intervals/Size, then select either "Specify number" or "Specify interval" and enter the appropriate values in the adjacent text boxes.

Thanks for your reply!!
"Special inteval&Special number" command just do the equal inteval of the grid lines. i mean different inteval of the grid lines.
just as the example in Dplot help .
"Getting Started with XY Plots - Data From a Disk File"
"Example 1:
1.00 1.00 1.00 1.00
2.00 4.00 8.00 16.0
3.00 9.00 27.0 81.0
4.00 16.0 64.0 256.
5.00 25.0 125. 625.

Example 2:
This is the title line
X X^2 X^3 X^4
1 1 1 1
2 4 8 16
3 9 27 81
4 16 64 256
5 25 125 625

Example 3:
This is the title line
X,X^2,X^3,X^4
1,1,1,1
2,4,8,16
3,9,27,81
4,16,64,256
5,25,125,625

In this examples , the grid lines of Y Axis just have the different intevals.
How can i do this?
Another problem: When i set X axis number format as Calendar Date.The default inteval of the grid lines is a month. I can't change the inteval,such as two months.etc. why?
I'm expecting for your reply.
Thank you....

That's a logarithmic scale. You can either right-click on the plot and select "Linear X - Logarithmic Y", or from the menu select Options>Linear/Log Scaling>Linear X - Logarithmic Y.

You should be able to change the interval using Options>Extents/Intervals/Size.
