R help - Mar 2005 - Write.table query

Hello,

I have the following 'write.table' statement which works fine

write.table(DataOutput,"c:/Prices.csv",append = TRUE,col.names =
NA,sep
= "," )

My query is, how could I modify this so I can include a variable name as
a prefix before the 'Prices.CSV' filename.

For example: 

prefixname = "DevX"

write.table(DataOutput,"c:/" &prefixname&
"Prices.csv",append TRUE,col.names = NA,sep = "," )

With the resultant CSV output to be named "DevXPrices.csv".

Appreciate any help

Use `paste':
> prefixname <- "DevX"
> paste("c:/", prefixname, "Prices.csv", sep =
"")
[1] "c:/DevXPrices.csv"
