Thank you for your reply. I meant from the dataframe, but that�s one of the
terms I had forgotten. I created that from read.csv, the csv file coming from
Excel. Last night I went ahead and made the change(s) using Excel.
For future reference, when I look at your solutions below, what do you mean by
�value to delete�? Could that just be a row number? I was wanting to delete
something like the 18th row in the dataframe?

Subject: Re: [R] Remove line from data file
From the file? Or the data frame once its loaded?
What format is the file? CSV?
Do you know the line that needs deleted?
mydf <- read.csv("myfile.csv")
mydf2 <- mydf[-columnName == "valuetodelete", ]
# Note the - infront of column name
# or perhaps columnName != "value to delete", ]
write.csv(mydf2, "mydeletedfile.csv")

I�ve been retired since �06 and have forgotten most of R. Now I have a use for
it. I�ve created a data file and need to delete one row from it. How do I do
that?
