This seems like a problem that others may have run into before. I got a merged dataset from SPSS. It has ~750 columns X 3400 rows. Most of the cell entries are NA. There are about 375 rows that contain observations on all variables and I want to extract this subset from the original list (of lists). I'm pretty sure I can do it programmatically in R but it will take me a few hours to write and debug. Before I start down that road I thought I'd ask if anyone had already tackled this particular type problem already.
The na.omit() function removes rows from a dataframe that have any missing values. -thomas
