*Hi @ all,
I have a question concerning the possibilty of grouping the columns of a
matrix.
R groups the columns alphabetically.
What can I do to group the columns in my specifications?

Dear Earth Eater;

You can create a factor whose levels are ordered to your specification. Your columns: "umweltkompartiment" obviously has those levels. This might also offer advantages in situations where there was not complete representation of all levels in all the files

So your tapply() calls could have been of this form:

b1_1<-tapply(b1$betriebs_id,
                 factor( b1$umweltkompartiment, levels=
                    c("Gesamt", "Wasser", "Boden", "Luft", "Abwasser",
"Gefährliche Abfälle", "nicht gefährliche Abfälle") )
               ,length)
# code would e more compact if you created a facvtor vector and use it as an argument to factor:

faclevs <- c("Gesamt", "Wasser", "Boden", "Luft", "Abwasser",
"Gefährliche Abfälle", "nicht gefährliche Abfälle")
b1_1<-tapply(b1$betriebs_id,
                 factor( b1$umweltkompartiment, levels= faclev )
               ,length)
<< lather, rinse, repeat x 3>>

The script is the following:*

#R-Skript: Anzahl xyz

#Quelldatei einlesen
b<-read.csv2("Z:/int/xyz.csv", header=TRUE)

#Teilmengen für die Einzeljahre generieren
b1<-subset(b,jahr=="2007")
b2<-subset(b,jahr=="2008")
b3<-subset(b,jahr=="2009")

#tapply für die Einzeljahre auf die jeweilige BranchenID
b1_1<-tapply(b1$betriebs_id,b1$umweltkompartiment,length)
b1_2<-tapply(b2$betriebs_id,b2$umweltkompartiment,length)
b1_3<-tapply(b3$betriebs_id,b3$umweltkompartiment,length)

#Verbinden der Ergebnisse
b11<-rbind(b1_1,b1_2,b1_3)
Gesamt<-apply(X=b11,MARGIN=1, sum)
b13<-cbind(Gesamt,b11)
b13
    Gesamt Abwasser Boden Gefährliche Abfälle Luft nicht gefährliche
Abfälle Wasser
b1_1   9832      432    18                3147 2839
1592   1804
b1_2  10271      413    28                3360 2920
1715   1835
b1_3   9983      404    21                3405 2741
1691   1721

*Now I want to have the following order of the columns:
Gesamt, Wasser, Boden, Luft, Abwasser, Gefährliche Abfälle, nicht
gefährliche Abfälle

Thanks a lot for your answers!
