read.table (PR#1535)

I downloaded the latest version of R (1.5.0) and issued a read.table() command 
that used to work with (1.3.1). Unfortunately I erased 1.3.1 from my hard 
drive after I downloaded R 1.5.0.

Here's the command and the error message I get under 1.5.0:
golub1<-read.table("C:/Microarrays/code/data_set_ALL_AML_train.txt",sep="\t",q
uote="",header=T,row.names=NULL)
Error in scan(file = file, what = what, sep = sep, quote = quote, dec = dec,  
:
        line 6808 did not have 79 elements

Any help will be appreciated!

Thanks,
Efstathia

Hi,
I don't think there is anything wrong with R in this case, it is the
file. I had to do a bit of editing to read those mit files into R. The
problem is that the tabs are not quite right. I fixed it by reading it
into Gnumeric and rewriting. I can send you some R dumps of the files if
you like.
