Lara, I assume you wish to look at which people answered yes on col1 and which answered yes for col2 and the overlap. So, something like this might help get you started C1 <- which(m$col1 == 'yes') C2 <- which(m$col2 == 'yes') venn.diagram(list(C1=C1, C2=C2), "c:/tmp/Venn_2set_simple.tiff") If that is not what you want, then you will need to provide an example of what you want your output to be.
