Jim and Patrick, Both of you made the same suggestion, which works great! A follow-up question: Suppose I change the condition 'x2' in 'lapply' to 'x4', as follows: set.seed(123) tmpf - function() { x - rpois(rpois(1,4),2) } n - 3 m - replicate(n,tmpf()) m sub.m - lapply(m, function(x)x[x4]) #

Yet another question: Let's say I do the following: set.seed(123) tmpf - function(){ x - rpois(rpois(1,4),2) } n - 3 m - replicate(n, tmpf()) m sub.m - lapply(m, function(x)x[x2]) 'sub.m' gives me: [[1]] [1] 3 4 [[2]] [1] 4 5 [[3]] [1] 4 The question is: What do I need to do such that I
