OK - in that case you can't fit the data into data.frame. Possibley
you cold get what you need using some kind of list structure but I
think it's better to ask why you need to transpose the data.
we have (imported from excel)
frame <-
data
.frame
("x0
"=
c
("y1
","y2","y3","y4"),"x1"=c(1,2,3,4),"x2"=c(5,6,7,8),"x1"=c(9,10,11,12))
where y1..yn are the names of the rows
we need frame$x1 .. . frame$xn
and frame[1,] .. frame[n,] but the first column is no the rownames.

y1 y2 y3 y4
x1 1 2 3 4
x2 5 6 7 8
x1.1 9 10 11 12
You are the one that provided the funky column names.
if it is possible to rotate the whole dataset we could use
frame$y1 ..frame$y2
