collapse a list of dataframes

I don't think that worked as OP would like it too - all columns of the
output
are factors.

data.frame(rbind(as.matrix(data.frame(a=1:3,b=letters[1:3])),as.matrix(data.frame(x=1:5,b=LETTERS[1:5]))))
  a b
1 1 a
2 2 b
3 3 c
4 1 A
5 2 B
6 3 C
7 4 D
8 5 E

str(.Last.value)

'data.frame':   8 obs. of  2 variables:
 $ a: Factor w/ 5 levels "1","2","3","4",..: 1 2 3 1 2 3 4 5
 $ b: Factor w/ 8 levels "a","A","b","B",..: 1 3 5 2 4 6 7 8

If you want the retain the types of the columns, leave out those as.matrix()
calls (and then there is no need to call data.frame on rbind's output).

Hi,

  The following worked.

data.frame(rbind(as.matrix(data.frame(a=1:3,b=letters[1:3])),as.matrix(data.frame(x=1:5,b=LETTERS[1:5]))))
  a b
1 1 a
2 2 b
3 3 c
4 1 A
5 2 B
6 3 C
7 4 D
8 5 E
