HI Elio, May be this helps: indx <- order(gsub("\\d+","",colnames(res))) res1 <- res[indx,indx] A.K.

Basically, the order should be alphabetical because then I don´t need to rearrange the data in Excel and since I have many columns of data, the alphabetical order makes dealing with specific values easier since I can just copy the row where different variable values for the same name are located. Does this help answering your question?
