Dear Stefan,
You could use rbind.fill() from reshape package :
> install.packages("reshape")
> library(reshape)
> df1 <- data.frame(A = c(1,2), B = c("m","f"), C = c("at home", "away"))
> df2 <- data.frame(A = c(2), C = c("at home"))
> rbind.fill(df1, df2)
A B C
1 1 m at home
2 2 f away
3 2 <NA> at home
