Hi Tammy, You can do:
act_2temp <- act_2[which(!duplicated(act_2[,c(1:5)])),] act_2temp[1:5,] act_2 <- act_2temp rm(act_2temp) Atenciosamente, Leandro Lins Marino Centro de Avaliação Fundação CESGRANRIO Rua Santa Alexandrina, 1011 - 2º andar Rio de Janeiro, RJ - CEP: 20261-903 R (21) 2103-9600 R.:236 ( (21) 8777-7907 ( lean...@cesgranrio.org.br "Aquele que suporta o peso da sociedade é precisamente aquele que obtém as menores vantagens".

How should I modify it`? Tammy _________________________________________________________________ News, entertainment and everything you care about at Live.com.
