You (as well , apparently, as Tal) don't seem to have learned that "=" is an assignment function and the needed Comparison operator is "==" ?Comparison Try instead: sub <- subset(Claims, Year=="Y1")

Try sub <- subset(Claims, Year==Y1) In R, the equality test is performed by two equal signs, not one. - Phil Spector Statistical Computing Facility Department of Statistics UC Berkeley spector at stat.berkeley.edu
