What did you try with "apply"? It seems to work for me. I did
x2[!apply(is.na(x2), 1, any),]
and got the desired results.

Subject: [R] removing NA from an its object
Hi again!
I have the following its object:>class(x1)
[1] "its"
attr(,"package")
[1] "its">x1

2004-06-23 NA 3945.10
2004-06-24 NA 4007.05
2004-06-25 NA 4013.35
2004-06-28 NA 4069.35
I want to create an its object with no NAs; that is, if there is an NA in
any column, strike the entire row.
I did the following:>x2 <- its(na.omit(x1))
>x2

12 13 14 15 16
attr(,"class")
[1] "omit">class(x2) <- "its"

My question: is this the best way to accomplish the goal, please? I tried
apply with "all" and is.na but I got strange results.
Thanks.
