read.csv() returns a data.frame so the outer call to data.frame() is superfluous. > > And now i am storing this variable name into a list. > > MyList <- list() > MyList [length(MyList )+1]<- "MyVar" > > Now what is the requirement is, > i need to call the variable name "MyVar" from the list "MyList " and get > the data. > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > i tried with get(MyList [1]). - it not work-out. Close: You want get(MyList)[1] which gets the variable "MyList" -- else you are telling R to look for something called "MyList[1]" which is a rare, but not actually impossible object name. As before, you really don't want to be using get() and assign() for this sort of stuff though. Please do try to do things the idiomatic way: it'll be easier in the long run : I promise.
