Hello!
I have got a dataframe with 10 columns and 100 rows. The seventh column consists of a lot of country names. When I use newdata=subset(data, data[, 7]=="United Kingdom"|data[, 7]=="Germany") I get just the rows where the country name is UK or Germany. But the level information doesn`t change. That means if I use levels(newdata[,7]), I get:

 [1] "Austria"                  "Belgium"
 [3] "Denmark"                  "Finland"
 [5] "France"                   "Germany"
 [7] "Spain"                    "Sweden"
 [9] "Switzerland"              "The Netherlands"
 [11] "United Kingdom"           "United States of America"
That leads to problems in the further data processing .

How can I change the level information to the real levels of newdata?

Thanking you in anticipation

Claudia
