Hello, I want to create and save objects in a loop, but this is precluded by the following obstacle: this part of the script fails to work: assign(x=paste("a", 1, sep=""), value=1); save(paste("a", 1, sep=""), file=paste(paste("a", 1, sep=""), ".RData", sep="")) Do you know any workaround? I am already out of ideas. Best regards, Martin
