Parametrizing heading in tables package

Dear R-Helpers,
I am using the (great) tables package in a function this way:
parplot <- function (x){
test <- pkqps[pkqps$estimate == x,]
####
#some plotting
#####
tab <- tabular((Heading("Analyte")*(analyte) * Heading(Site)* (fsite))
~ (n=1)+ Justify(c)*Heading(substitute(test$estimate[1]))
*(result)*(Mean + Median + Min + Max + CV)
* Format(digits = 1), data = test)
html(tab, file = paste(qpar$param[1],"stat",".html", sep=""))
}
parplot("Cmax")
parplot("AUClast")
etc...
I am trying to parametrize the heading in tabular with
"Heading(substitute(test$estimate[1]))".
test$estimate[1] is a character variate which is the name I want to
appear in the heading (ie Cmax for example in the first call of the
function.
This does not work and produces just "substitute(test$estimate[1])" in
the heading.
I would use substitute() on the whole formula. For example, a <- "New heading" x <- rnorm(100) tabular( substitute( Heading( head )*x ~ mean, list(head = a) ) ) Duncan Murdoch
