John, Try this: > write.table(head(iris), sep = ",", row.names = FALSE, col.names = FALSE) 5.1,3.5,1.4,0.2,"setosa" 4.9,3,1.4,0.2,"setosa" 4.7,3.2,1.3,0.2,"setosa" 4.6,3.1,1.5,0.2,"setosa" 5,3.6,1.4,0.2,"setosa" 5.4,3.9,1.7,0.4,"setosa" You may need to explicitly adjust other arguments that are otherwise set to defaults when using write.csv().
