Hi again, I have loaded a huge csv file in R using 'ff' package, however could not understand how can I subset the loaded object.

HI, The dput() is showing error message. Is it not possible to convert it to data.frame and subset? Using the example from ?ffdf ?m <- matrix(1:12, 3, 4, dimnames=list(c("r1","r2","r3"), c("m1","m2","m3","m4"))) ?????? v <- 1:3 ?????? ffm <- as.ff(m) ?????? ffv <- as.ff(v) ? ffd <- ffdf(ffm, v=ffv, row.names=row.names(ffm)) d1 <- data.frame(ffd) subset(d1,m1>1) ?? m1 m2 m3 m4 v r2? 2? 5? 8 11 2 r3? 3? 6? 9 12 3 A.K.

If there was there something in the documentation that suggested `subset` should succeed with an 'ffdf' object, then you should write to the package authors.
