Sorry for the vaugness. I have text data (exam grades, say) for different courses and I want to table them. In my table I want the frequency for the lowest grade first and the other frequencies in increaseing (grade) order. Some frequencies might be zero but I want to include those empty cells in my table.
I hope that made sense? Thank you in advance!

See ?tabulate. You can reorder the result via indexing: I don't follow what you want and you did not give us an example. (For example, is 'ordinal data' represented by an ordered factor or by an integer vector?) -- Brian D.
