Thanks again Jim. The links below are for 2 files (papers) i
downloaded from Google Scholar for testing. You can use either both or
any other pdf files with tables. Thanks again-EK.

Hi Ek,
It looks to me as though you are not joining the lists into a single
list, then calling FillList and then converting to a data frame. If
you can send some data (if it's not too big) I can test it and make
sure that it works, as it did every time for me.

Thank you Jim. I did use unlist with the recursive option which
converted the 3 levels list to a list of 38 matrices. I tried your
earlier function to join the 38 matrices, all of which have different
number of columns and rows, but i kept getting an error.
fillList<-function(x) {
+ maxrows<-m
Hi Ek,
Look at unlist and the argument "recursive". You can step down through
the levels or a nested list to convert it to a single level list.

Thank you Bert. I don't see how unlist will help. I want to combine
them but keep the "rectangular structure",e.g. list, data frame,
matrix because i want to get the tables in their original form.
Unlist converts the whole output to a single vector; unless i am
missing something.

Does ?unlist not help? Why not?
