R help - Jun 2008 - write.table a df with specific column order

Hi
I'd like to write.table a dataframe, but with an specific order of
columns. Is there a direct way to do it? or I have to generate a new
dataframe as follows:

t  <- data.frame(c=1:10, b=11:20, a=letters[1:10])
t2 <- data.frame(a=t$a, b=t$b, c=t$c)
write.table(t2, row.names=F)

Thanks for any comment

Juli

Try:

write.table(t[c("a", "b", "c")], row.names=F)
