Subject   st: combining graphs & legends

Hello,

I am trying to combine two two-way graphs (see attached code) 
where both y & x axes are of the same scale & a legend details
the meaning of the plots.
I have tried attempted to use graph combine command however it
doesn't appear to have a legend option and if I attempt to 
combine one graph with & one without the legend no legend
appears in the combined graph. I can combine two graphs both
with a legend but this should not be required as they are the 
same. I have attempted to use either the note or caption 
option to generate a legend however keyboard symbols do not 
replicate the linepatternstyles that I have used or are 
likely to use.
Any guidance would be much appreciated.
thanks 
Richard Hiscock
