Dear R-list,

Is there a way to convert the typical long R data-format to a 1-line per 
subject format?

I have data formatted as:

Group   subj    condition       variable
1       1       1       746.36625
2       2       1       1076.152857
1       3       1       1076.152857
2       4       1       657.4263636
1       5       1       854.1266667
2       6       1       1191.676154
1       7       1       1028.175385
1       1       2       46.36625
2       2       2       76.152857
1       3       2       76.152857
2       4       2       57.4263636
1       5       2       54.1266667
2       6       2       191.676154
1       7       2       028.175385
...

Here, one line equals the value of one subjects  VARIABLE in function of the 
GROUP and the CONDITION.

However, I would like to rearrange the data so that the columns of my data 
equal the 2 conditions and the lines the subjects. This is something like:

subj    group   condition1      condition2
1       1       746.36625       46.36625
2       2       1076.152857     76.152857
...

I know its possible the other way around. But that's not what I need (this 
time).

Before anyone asks: Yes, I want to do some analysis on my data in SPSS, so I 
need the rearranged format.

Regards and Thanks,
Dieter
