as.matrix should do the job; if it does not (second example), you probably have rownames or some other string in your data set. Dieter # use read.csv instead x = data.frame(a=1:10,b=11:20) xm = as.matrix(x) str(xm) xm # looks good x1 = data.frame(a=1:10,b=11:20,c=letters[1:10]) xm1 = as.matrix(x1) str(xm1) xm1 # looks strange, because it's all strings
