Does this example help?

 a <- matrix(letters[1:12], ncol=3)
 a
     [,1] [,2] [,3]
[1,] "a"  "e"  "i"
[2,] "b"  "f"  "j"
[3,] "c"  "g"  "k"
[4,] "d"  "h"  "l"

 write.table(a[,3,drop=FALSE],quote=FALSE,col.names=FALSE,row.names=FALSE)
i
j
k
l

Thank you Dieter and Rolf,

I have solved the slash Problem, but I still struggling  with the output
files.

I have tried this
 by(AlexETF,AlexETF$Industry,function(a) {filename = paste("C:/ab/",gsub("
","",a$Industry[1]),".txt",sep="")
        print(filename)
write.table(a,file=filename,col.names = FALSE) }
 )

and this

 by(AlexETF,AlexETF$Industry,function(a) {filename = paste("C:/ab/",gsub("
","",a$Industry[1]),".txt",sep="")
        print(filename)
write(as.character(a),file=filename) } )

I want in each file just the ticker with out any quotations mark.

Thanks in advance,
