If your previously posted code worked with files all having the same
number of columns, and if your data is read in correctly without the
colClasses argument, then I think the following code should work.
for(i in names){
filepath = file.path("~/Silvano/Dados", paste(i, ".raw", sep=""))
assign(i, read.table(filepath))
}
If not, then my guess is the error (what is the error message???) is due
to the file referencing or naming. For example, it's not clear to me why
you take the substring of the file name, only to paste on the file type
suffix later.
