trouble with exporting a data.frame with " (quotation mark) in some columns into a tab delimited file, then importing the file

Patrick Giraudoux <patrick.giraudoux at univ-fcomte.fr> ?????:

write.table(db, file = "db.txt", row.names = FALSE, quote = FALSE,
sep = "\t")

db_import<-read.delim("db.txt")

Since write.table() had been called with quote=FALSE, you'll need to
read the file with quote="" to prevent read.delim() from interpreting
the quotes.
