now after this:

  
   df_both <- subset(df, grepl("t1", Command) & grepl("t2", Command))

I use factor to apply the subset to df but then the Command level becomes 0


   df_both$Command=factor(df_both$Command)

   str(df_both)
   
   $ Protocol     : Factor w/ 0 levels: 
Do you know what is the reason?
Thanks for replying

'grepl' returns a logical vector; you have to use this to get your subset.  You 
can use:

df_tq <- subset(df, grepl("t1", Command))
df_t2 <- subset(df, grepl("t2", Command))

# if you want to also get a subset that has both, use

df_both <- subset(df, grepl("t1", Command) & grepl("t2", Command))

What is the problem that you are trying to solve?
Tell me what you want to do, not how you want to do it.
