Dear all, I want to produce a tab separated text file but R 1.6.2 does not respond to the tab key on my keyboard. When I paste: write.table(alla.obt.rar0, "obt.txt", sep=" ", quote=F, row.names=F) into the console it looks like this: write.table(alla.obt.rar0, "obt.txt", sep="", quote=F, row.names=F) Has anyone had a similar problem? I use Win Xp on a Dell machine. Thanks in advance!

Use sep="\t" to insert tabs. regards, sundar
try : write.table(alla.obt.rar0, "obt.txt", sep="\t", quote=F, row.names=F)
