Thank you for your help in advance

specify them as factors. Assuming your data frame is called "MyData":
MyData$Ind_1<-as.factor(MyData$Ind_1)
MyData$Ind_2<-as.factor(MyData$Ind_2)
This way R will know they are not numeric variables but categorical
variables. Then, when you do analyses using those variables, R will
treat them as such and will build dummies "automatically" (e.g., if
you use regres...
