rep(NULL, 430) does not give you a vector of length 430; it gives you a NULL
vector, and at the end of this process myc

David,
Thanks for your tip but it seems I'm having problems with the number
of columns R manages to read in. Below it s an example of the data read in:
> inp[1:20,]
V1 V2V3 V4 V5 V6 V7 V8 V9
1 1. log_fy_coff -1.007600 0.119520 1. NA

Read the whole file with read.table, and select columns you need,
e.g.:
tab <- read.
