R help - Jul 2009 - Deleting .RData files

Hi all! I have accidentially saved few objects when I have closed workspace
and clicked from "save workspace image" "Yes". Now I would
like to delete
the .RData files so that workspace wouldnt restore the unwanted objects
everytime I open the workspace.

I know i could delete the corresponding .RData files but the problem is that
I don't know which of the files contain the objects i'd like to delete.

I apologize for the newbie question but I haven't found a satisfactory
answer from Google or R documents..

Thanks!
John

Hi John,

You can use

rm(object)

to delete a specific object from the current environment and then save
your workspace again without those objects

ls()

to see a list of objects could also be useful

Regards,

Paul
