Hi, I wonder whether the following is possible with R, and whether
anyone has done that and can share his/her code with me. I have a
correlation matrix, and I want to create a correlation table that I
can copy to Microsoft Word with a superscript above each
correlation, indicating significant differences in the same row.
That is, when correlations in the same row do not share superscript,
it means that they are significantly different from each other.
thanks,yoav

An example with data and the desired result might help focus the
discussion.
This shows how to set up an example showing how extract the row
numbers from a correlation matrix with absolute values above 0.5 but
less than 1 (to exclude the trivial cases).

This would extract the rownames if they are letters[1:10]

function(x) rownames(X)[x])

Exactly how we are supposed to pass this to MS Word does not seem to
be a proper question for this mailing list.
