Thank you, Gentlemen. That serves my need. Bill's routine is great. Also, Rui: Is there a way to get rid of the filled "NA" and use space instead. Using fill = "" does not help either; it causes all numbers to be embraced with quotations. Finally, I have no idea why Rui's message did not reach me at all (not even in the junk mail box). But, obviously Bill had received it. Hmm.
