x <- subset(dframe, `1` == "My Text") dframe[dframe[,'1']=="FY11_Q4",] dframe[dframe[,1]=="FY11_Q4",] (These are of course only equivalent if it is the 1st column that is named "1"...) -- Peter Dalgaard Center for Statistics, Copenhagen Business School Solbjerg Plads 3, 2000 Frederiksberg, Denmark Phone: (+45)38153501 Email: pd....@cbs.dk Priv: pda...@gmail.com ______________________________________________ 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.
