R help - Jan 2012 - Replacing lists with NA

Dear All,

I'm new to R and my problem is this:

I'm reading a table which has list objects such as this:

   col1   col2   col3     col4
     1       3        5        4,5        
     2      2,3      6         5        

NumericTable <- as.numeric(Table) 

This command doesn't work as it can't coerce lists to NA

What can I do to replace the lists with NA

Best wishes

I think I sorted it myself (sorry).

Whether this is the best way I dont know but it seemed to work.  I changed
the table to a matrix using the as.matrix command.  Then used the as.numeric
command on the matrix to change the lists to NA.  Then I had to change the
numeric matrix back to a matrix of the correct dimensions using the matrix
command.  Thanks
