Hi All,I have hunted high and low and tried dozens of things but have yet to achieve the result I require. Below is my code (taken mostly from another thread on here) thus far: files<-list.files() files<-files[grep('.wm4', files)] labels<-gsub('.wm4', '',files) for(i in 1:length(files)){ X<-read.table(files[i]) <My problem is here!> What I am trying to do now is assign the first item in labels in place of X so the table name will effectively be whatever is written in labels[1]. The files simply consist of two columns of real numbers. I have tried several things, such like replacing X with labels[1], but this simply writes the data in one long column to the first place of labels(which makes sense). How do I extract what is in labels[1] and set it as the table name? As always any help is greatly appreciated. Kenny Larsen
