You dont't tell us what you did to "create a datafile" - to me it sounds like you created an object (probably a data frame) in your R workspace. If that's the case it is stored in a file called .RData in your current work directory (together with other variables in your workspace). If that is not what you did please give us mre information. BTW: R has a function called data and it is not a very good idea to use function names as variable names. cu Philipp -- Dr. Philipp Pagel Lehrstuhl für Genomorientierte Bioinformatik Technische Universität München Wissenschaftszentrum Weihenstephan Maximus-von-Imhof-Forum 3 85354 Freising, Germany http://webclu.bio.wzw.tum.de/~pagel/ ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
