I need to draw several xlines on a graph in two patterns(say solid and 
longdash). I can draw several xlines in a particular pattern(long dash) 
using the following command.

xline( 1967 1971 1976 1982 1986 1988, lpat(longdash))

But can't draw in two patterns.

Can anyone suggest me a way to draw them in two patterns?
