Hi Bill and mark, I meant the mutate does NOT set the NA value – sorry for the confusion. Thank you for your clarifications that this may not be mutate()’s problem. This thread is now closed from my end.

This may not be mutate()'s problem. The Date class is messed up with regard to NA's and Inf's. E.g., what gets printed as NA does not correspond to what is.na<http://is.na>() returns and its range() method does not appear to pass the finite=TRUE argument to range.default: > d <- as.Date(c("2014-10-31", c("2014-11-10"))) > d1 <- range(d[0], finite=TRUE) Warning messages: 1: In min.default(numeric(0), na.rm = FALSE) : no non-missing arguments to min; returning Inf 2: In max.default(numeric(0), na.rm = FALSE) : no non-missing arguments to max; returning -Inf > d1 [1] NA NA > is.na<http://is.na>(d1) [1] FALSE FALSE > dput(d1) structure(c(Inf, -Inf), class = "Date") > range(c(d1, d), finite=TRUE) [1] NA NA > range(c(d1, d), finite=TRUE, na.rm=TRUE) [1] NA NA Bill Dunlap TIBCO Software wdunlap tibco.com<http://tibco.com> On Mon, Nov 10, 2014 at 10:09 AM, Muhuri, Pradip (SAMHSA/CBHSQ) <pradip.muh...@samhsa.hhs.gov<mailto:pradip.muh...@samhsa.hhs.gov>> wrote: Mark, Thank you very much for further looking into this issue.
