In addition to which, the original question uses an incorrect way to reference
columns in the data frame.
It should probably have been:
newMyData <-MyData[!is.na(MyData$col1) | !is.na(MyData$col2) |
!is.na(MyData$col3) |
!is.na(MyData$col4) | !is.na(MyData$col5) , ]
That is assuming that "col1", "col2", etc. are actually the column names.
Otherwise, maybe this
newMyData <-MyData[!is.na(MyData[,1]) | !is.na(MyData[,2] | !is.na(MyData[,3])
|
!is.na(MyData[,4]) | !is.na(MyData[,5]) , ]
Also, I don't know what you mean when you say you want it to "write in for
loop". Do you want the new data frame printed at each iteration? In that case,
try putting
print(newMyData)
inside the loop.

Dear Laura,
It looks like you want to remove all rows for which each column is NA.
You can to that with the code below.
na.matrix <- is.na(MyData)
all.na.row <- apply(na.matrix, 1, all)
MyData[!all.na.row, ]
