Hi All,
I hadn't realized the 'a-1' will open such a can of worms!
Actually, the header elements will look something like
'ABCD-002-234-01D' (instead of 'a-1'). I get the files from somwhere
else, so I cannot change how the input file is.
Should I go ahead with the check.names=FALSE option?
Well, you could always let read.table change the - to . and go from
there, since you'll know what happened. It really depends on your needs!
