Before posting further: 1. Read the posting guide linked to at the bottom of this message. In particular note: no HTML,please. 2. Do your due diligence. Spend some time with an R tutorial to learn the basics -- we should not have to answer questions that with minimal effort you could answer for yourself. This one ships with R, but there are many other good ones on the web: http://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/R-intro.pdf Cheers, Bert Bert Gunter Genentech Nonclinical Biostatistics (650) 467-7374 "Data is not information.

Hi Andrew, See ?cut and ?table, e.g., table(cut(Age, c(0, 10, 20, 30), include.lowest=TRUE)) should do it. Best, Ista
