David,

 It must have been stripped off as too large (14K).

 Regardless, I solved the problem:

 The examples in the subset help page show only a single row criterion
being used, but does not explicitly note that rows can be selected only one
criterion at a time.

Because that is simply not true. Connect your criteria with ampersands and you can have as many as you want. The only requirement is that the logical vector that results be exactly the number of rows in the dataframe .... as described in the help page.


Because the issue showed up only with the subset() function to extract
rows with the parameter TDS, the problem had to be in that syntax. By
changing the data frame argument to subset() from the overall chemdata to that of only a single stream, creation of the zoo object threw no errors and
duplicated() returned zero rows.

 Wow! And I thought I understood the subset() syntax. I now do!

Thanks to you, Gabor, and everyone else who responded to this thread,

Rich
