Will something like this work for you: > x <- matrix(1:100,10) > dimnames(x) <- list(letters[1:10], LETTERS[1:10]) > x A B C D E F G H I J a 1 11 21 31 41 51 61 71 81 91 b 2 12 22 32 42 52 62 72 82 92 c 3 13 23 33 43 53 63 73 83 93 d 4 14 24 34 44 54 64 74 84 94 e 5 15 25 35

Dear All, I have a correlation matrix say 'M' (4000x4000) for 4000 genes and I want to subset it to 'N' (190x190) for 190 genes. The list of those 190 genes are in variable 't'. So the idea is to read the names of genes from variable 't' and subset the matrix M accordingly. Any thoughts are welcome
