If you show us, not just tell us about, a self-contained example someone might show you a non-hacky way of getting the job done. (I don't see an argument to plyr::ddply called 'transform'.)

Hi,
Here is what I am doing
notGroupedAll <- ddply(data
,~groupColumn
,summarise
,col1_mean=mean(col1)
,col2_mode=Mode(col2) #Function I wrote for getting the
mode shown below
,col3_Range=myIqr(col3)
)
groupedAll <- ddply(data
,~groupColumn
,summarise
,col1_mean=mean(col1)
,col2_mode=Mode(col2) #Function I wrote for getting the
mode shown below
,col3_Range=Mode(col3)
)
#custom Mode function
Mode <- function(x) {
ux <- unique(x)
ux[which.max(tabulate(match(x, ux)))]
#the range function
myIqr <- function(x) {
paste(round(quantile(x,0.375),0),round(quantile(x,0.625),0),sep="-")
}
}
Here is what I am doing!! :)

Well, instead of your functions try:
Mode <- function(x) {
tabx <- table(x)
tabx[which.max(tabx)]
}
and use R's IQR function instead of yours.
... so I still don't get why you want to return a character string
instead of a value for the IQR;
and the mode of a sample defined as above is generally a bad estimator
of the mode of the distribution. To say more than that would take me
too far afield. Post on stats.stackexchange.com if you want to know
why (if it's even relevant).
Cheers,
Bert
