Hello,
How could I scale and center the data contained in the attached file since I would like to do this before doing a PCA analysis on them as well as drawing boxplot.

I didn't look at your data, but you might try:

PLEASE do read the posting guide! 
http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html

Among MANY other tipps, it suggests to use help.search("keyword")

Please do so!

Please also read help pages, already the question related to pairs() 
could have been avoided by reading the help pages ....
