Hi
from posting guide
Technical details of posting: See General Instructions for more
details of the following:
No binary ***attachments*** except for PS, PDF, and some image and
archive formats (others are automatically stripped off because they
can contain malicious software). Files in other formats and larger
ones should rather be put on the web and have only their URLs posted.
This way a reader has the option to download them or not.
So your attachement was stripped off.
Tapply uses only one variable but you can use ?by or ?aggregate.
by gives you a list, aggregate a data frame
by(part.of.your.data.frame[,c(1,5,8:11,15)], your.column, function)
aggregate(part.of.your.data.frame[,c(1,5,8:11,15)],
list(your.columns, function)
