You do not need package foreach, which is intended at a completely different problem.
R does not really have the syntactic equivalent of "varlist", but you can easily do something like: for(var in paste0("p", 1:14)) { for(y in paste0("p", 15:269)) lm(yourData[[var]] ~ yourData[[y]]) } provided that yourData is the data frame in which the p* variables are stored. There are probably more direct ways of doing the same thing and storing the resulting lm objects in a list, but you did not state what you intend to do with this enormous set of regressions...
