I have a data.frame with a similar name left over from another problem. When I enter DATA$V1[1] = -.5 , it has the desired effect. Although it is not the source of the error, you should learn to use "<-" rather than "=". You should also learn to post questions with reproducible code. -- David Winsemius ______________________________________________ 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.
