R help - Dec 2009 - Remove double quotation marks

Dear All,

I am not sure how to remove double quotation marks in a string, e.g.,
paste("variable", 1). Can anybody please help me solve it? Thank you
in
advance.

I think you need to tell us what is wrong with what you get from that. 
When I look at the result:

 > cat(paste("variable", 1), "\n")
variable 1

I see no quotation marks.  (If you use print() you'll see some, but they 
aren't part of the string, they are just used in the default display by 
print().)
