Yes
It could be. But anyway, if you wanted to melt your frame and be sure to have
norm column added to months column you shall use
melt(dataset, id.vars=NULL, na.rm=TRUE)
construction.
Without it and considering data you sent I get
> head(dd.m0)
norm variable value
1 45.8713463281901 januari 38.1
2 24.047250681782984 januari 32.4
3 3.7533684144746324 januari 34.5

5 26.391897460120358 januari 21.5
6 61.746470001194638 januari 23.1
...
without this id.vars=NULL parameter.

Hello,
I upgraded R tot version 3.1.3 and now everything in the script works
perfectly. Could the troubles be due to the fact that I was running an older
version?

I transform my dataset with the following script:

value <- y[,2]
and can then perform a levene test as follows:
LEVENE <- leveneTest(value~variable,y)
When the dataset is small, lets say less than 100 values per column everything
works great. I get the message:
No id variables; using all as measure variables
When the dataset is much bigger I get the following message
Using norm as id variables, why does this function pick norm as id variable?
and how can I tell R that each column title is my variable

________________________________
Hi
There is something weird with your data and melt function.
AFAIK melt does not use first row as id.variables.
What is result of
str(dataset)
Instead of
melt(dataset,id.vars=dataset[1,], na.rm=TRUE)
melt expects something like
melt(dataset, id.vars=c("norm, "jaar"), na.rm=TRUE)
If you want more specific answer you shall show us part of your data,
preferably copy output of
dput(dataset[1:20,])
into your mail.
Cheers
