The last column value doesn't follow any rule. Thanks, Mohan Re: [R] Output from unix PS Sarah Goslee to: mohan.radhakrishnan 16-08-2013 06:01 PM Cc: r-help You don't tell us your OS details or provide an actual reproducible example, but the error suggests that COMMAND is not one of the column names in your data frame. Have you checked that? When I run ps on my Fedora system, the column name is CMD and not COMMAND.
