Greetings Douglas/Jim/John/R-help,
          Thanks for your help so far.

           Answering your questions - doing an "str' on the list reveals
following (head) information  :

Just typing the list name reveals the following information:

      [,1]        [,2]        [,3]        [,4]        [,5]        [,6]
idfactor,109  factor,196  factor,199  factor,181  factor,183  factor,181
info1  Integer,109 Integer,196 Integer,199 Integer,181 Integer,183
Integer,181
info2 Numeric,109 Numeric,196 Numeric,199 Numeric,181 Numeric,183
Numeric,181
info3  Integer,109 Integer,196 Integer,199 Integer,181 Integer,183

info5  Integer,109 Integer,196 Integer,199 Integer,181 Integer,183
Integer,181
..
....
...
info10  Integer,109 Integer,196 Integer,199 Integer,181 Integer,183
Integer,181

 ---------------
and dim & typeof information  shows the following:

dim => [1]  10 140

typeof => [1] "list"

---------------------

        Does the above information help?


Thanks a bunch!

AP.
