I must have missed something simple, but still, i don't know what.

I obtained my basic data as follows:

x <- sprintf("SELECT m_id,sale_date,YEAR(sale_date) AS
sale_year,WEEK(sale_date) AS sale_week,return_type,0.0001 +
DATEDIFF(return_date,sale_date) AS elapsed_time FROM
`merchants2`.`risk_input` WHERE DATEDIFF(return_date,sale_date) IS NOT
NULL")
moreinfo <- dbGetQuery(con, x)

I then made the data frame I want to use as follows:

fun_m_id <- function(df)
  if (length(df$elapsed_time) > 5) {
    rv = fitdist(df$elapsed_time,"exp")
    rv$mid = df$m_id[1]
    rv
  }
aaa <- lapply(split(moreinfo,list(moreinfo$m_id),drop = TRUE), fun_m_id)
m_id_default_res <- do.call(rbind, aaa)

At this point, each row in m_id_default_res corresponds to one data.frame
produced by fitdist.  When I print it, I get the output I expected.
However, I need to store only some of it into my DB.

And then, because fitdist produces a data frame that includes a lot of info
I don't need to store in the DB, I tried making a new data.frame containing
only the info I need as follows:
ndf = data.frame()
for (i in 1:length(m_id_default_res[,1])) {
  ndf$mid[i] = m_id_default_res$mid[i]
  ndf$estimate[i] = m_id_default_res$estimate[i]
  ndf$sd[i] = m_id_default_res$sd[i]
  ndf$n[i] = m_id_default_res[i]
  ndf$loglik[i] = m_id_default_res$loglik[i]
  ndf$aic[i] = m_id_default_res$aic[i]
  ndf$bic[i] = m_id_default_res$bic[i]
  ndf$chisq[i] = m_id_default_res$chisq[i]
  ndf$chisqpvalue[i] = m_id_default_res$chisqpvalue[i]
  ndf$chisqdf[i] = m_id_default_res$chisqdf[i]
}
ndf

And I get the following error:
Error in `$<-.data.frame`(`*tmp*`, "n", value = list(0.114752782316094)) :
  replacement has 1 rows, data has 0

I need to either get rid of the columns in m_id_default_res that I don't
need, or I need to copy only those columns I need to a new data.frame.  How
do I do this.  Obviously, doing an element-wise copy, at least as I tried to
do it, doesn't work.

Thanks,

Ted
