R help - Sep 2007 - artificial data matrix with 100000 rows

Hi guys,

I tried to made the matrix with this size by either matrix() or array().
However, there seems to be default limit of number for rows made. I got sort
of error message from R .To be specific, 

m<--matrix(ncol=3,nrow=100000)

error message:[ reached getOption("max.print") -- omitted 66667 rows
]]

or

a<-array(dim=c(10000,3,10))

error message:reached getOption("max.print") -- omitted 6667 row(s)
and 6
matrix slice(s) ]

Please help.

That is not an error message, I guess. When the matrices are huge, R
is unable to print them totally on the screen, but all data are
present. For instance,
> m[(nrow(m)-10):nrow(m),]
      [,1] [,2] [,3]
 [1,]   NA   NA   NA
 [2,]   NA   NA   NA
 [3,]   NA   NA   NA
 [4,]   NA   NA   NA
 [5,]   NA   NA   NA
 [6,]   NA   NA   NA
 [7,]   NA   NA   NA
 [8,]   NA   NA   NA
 [9,]   NA   NA   NA
[10,]   NA   NA   NA
[11,]   NA   NA   NA
