Hi, Next time give folks code to produce a toy sample of your problem DF <-data.frame(ID=rep(1:5,each=3),Data=rnorm(15),Stuff=seq(1:15)) DF ID Data Stuff 1 1 2.0628225 1 2 1 0.6599165 2 3 1 0.5672595 3 4 2 -0.5308823 4 5 2 -0.5358471 5 6 2 -0.1414992 6 7 3 -0.1679643 7 8 3 0.9220922 8 9 3 0.8863018 9 10 4 -0.7255916 10 11 4 -1.2446753 11 12 4 0.8165567 12 13 5 0.0925008 13 14 5 -0.8534803 14 15 5 -0.6535016 15
