     Thanks for everyone who responded to my query.
     I found an easy solution on this. 
     
     Step 1: Make a data frame with x (group), y (value) and the range of CI, 
in 
     the format like this, x1, y1 ci1, x2, y2, ci2, ..., depending on how many 
     subgroups you have. You can change the values of x to separate the 
     subgroups.
      
     Step 2: Plot x1, y1, ci1 using error bar plot. Now you have a plot for the 
     first subgroup.
     
     Step 3: Using the 'add a plot to a graph' feature to add additional 
     subgroup graph on the first plot from step 2. And repeat step 3 to add 
more 
     subgroup.

##### the original query:
     
     Hello,
     Does anyone have a function to plot mean and confidence interval by group. 
     The plot is something like the following:
     
     |          _       _  _
     |       _  |    _  |  |
     |    _  |  C    |  B  C
     |    |  B  |    A  |  |
     |    A  |  _    |  _  _
     |    |  _       _
     |    _
     __________________________
          group 1    group 2
     
     
     What I need is the interval plot by group and there are
     subgroups within each 'big' group. I would like to use different symbols 
     for the subgroups to distinguish them. As shown in my original query, there
     
     are two groups, i.e., group 1 and group 2, and there are 3 subgroups, i.e.,
     
     A, B, and C.
