Readers, Scenario: data x consists of one column; 1 2 3 data y; 4 5 6 Is it possible to write to file such that the file is: 1,4 2,5 3,6 using the write.file function? I have tried the command: write(x,file="file.csv",ncolumns=1,append=TRUE,sep=",") write(y,file="file.csv",ncolumns=1,append=TRUE,sep=",") but the result is: 1 2 3 4 5 6 yours, rhelpatconference.jabber.org r 251 mandriva 2008
