Dear Ashta,

Is this what you want?

x <- read.table(textConnection("v1 v2 v3  v4 v5
  1  2   3   3    6
  5  2  4    2    0
  2 -9   5   4    3
  6  2   1   3    4"), header = TRUE)
closeAllConnections()
x

# Option 1
x1 <- x      # copy of x just for this example
x1$v2[which(x1$v2 == -9)] <- NA
x1

# Option 2
x2 <- x      # copy of x just for this example
x2$v2 <- with(x2, ifelse(v2 == -9, NA, v2))
x2

HTH,
Jorge
