Hello All, 
Thanks in advance for all help. 

In my prog, I have a global list object that is used as a container for storing 
some data frames.
Here is an example code.
--SNIP--
temp1 <- function(X){
    statName = c("Mean", "stdDev", "NumSamples")
    statVal = c("0.5", "0.51", "5")

    r = data.frame(statName=statName, statVal = statVal)
    X[["temp1"]] = r
}

reportList = list()
temp1(reportList)
print(reportList)
--SNIP--

I was expecting that the new data frame in temp1 would get added to the list 
(reportList), but it doesn't, probably because, arguments to functions are 
passed "Call-by-value" and loose all locally made changes.

Any ideas how I can do this.

Shank
