Dear PDXRugger,
If I understand correctly, try this:
# Data
x = c(1:5,1,4,7)
# Option 1
require(car)
y1=recode(x, "1=4; 4=2; 7=3")
# Option 2
y2=ifelse(x==1,4,
ifelse(x==4,2,
ifelse(x==7,3,x)))
# Are y1 and y2 equals?
all.equal(y1,y2)
# Ordering x by y1
x[order(y1)]
See ?order, ?ifelse and ?recode in the 'car' package for more information.
HTH,
Jorge
