Ana,

the following code may help:

teste="P:/test"
cc="pt"
yy="03"
data=matrix(1:12,3,4)

dir=paste(teste,cc,yy,sep="/")

# does directory already exist? if not, then create it
if (!is.null(try(setwd(dir),silent=TRUE))) {dir.create(dir,recursive=T)}

# write data to desired location 
write.table(data,file=paste(dir,"/",cc,yy,".txt",sep=""))

cheers,
marcus
