Can you describe how your data is organized. It is clear there are eight columns, but it is not clear how the groups are represented, a Group column or do the groups have to be assembled from information in another column (a column with CD8.14, etc)? Create a small version of the data and use dput() to create a readable version that can be pasted into a plain text email (don't use html) usually results in a faster response.
