Please use code and data which is reproducible for us. As we don't have access to your data, we'd have to construct some of our own. This code, however, has the same effect: for (i in 1:100) { sink("./sometext.txt", append=TRUE) summary(rnorm(80)) sink()} When you do the following: for (i in 1:100) { summary(rnorm(80))} what output do you get? And all this output is redirected to your file by sink(), so it works as expected. -- Johannes Hüsing There is something fascinating about science. One gets such wholesale returns of conjecture mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] from such a trifling investment of fact. http://derwisch.wikidot.com (Mark Twain, "Life on the Mississippi") ______________________________________________ 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.
