Hi,
Assuming that you have read the files into R,
and that their names (in R) are held in some object
(e.g., 'file2'), then this works
do.call(what = cbind, args = mget(x = file2, envir = .GlobalEnv)
Here is a reproducible example:
x1 <- data.frame(x = 1:10)
x2 <- data.frame(y = 1:10)
file.names <- c("x1", "x2")
do.call(cbind, mget(file.names, envir=.GlobalEnv))
Best regards,
Josh
