You mean each line in the file, not row in data.frame, has the form "year-month-day,hour:min,numericValue". Try the following, where tfile names your file: > df <- read.table(tfile, header=FALSE, sep=",", col.names=c("dateString", "timeString", "Value")) > df dateString timeString Value 1 2015-10-01 00:00 90.6689 2 2015-10-01 01:00 90.6506 3 2015-10-01 02:00 90.6719 4 2015-10-01 03:00 90.6506 > transform(df, DateTime = as.POSIXlt(paste(dateString, timeString), format="%Y-%m-%d %H:%M"), dateString=NULL, timeString=NULL) Value DateTime 1 90.6689 2015-10-01 00:00:00 2 90.6506 2015-10-01 01:00:00 3 90.6719 2015-10-01 02:00:00 4 90.6506 2015-10-01 03:00:00 > str(.Last.value) 'data.frame': 4 obs. of 2 variables: $ Value : num 90.7 90.7 90.7 90.7 $ DateTime: POSIXct, format: "2015-10-01 00:00:00" "2015-10-01 01:00:00" "2015-10-01 02:00:00" "2015-10-01 03:00:00" Bill Dunlap TIBCO Software wdunlap tibco.com On Fri, Jul 20, 2018 at 1:24 PM, Rich Shepard <rshep...@appl-ecosys.com> wrote: > On Fri, 20 Jul 2018, William Dunlap wrote: > > Which format did you use when you used is.na on the output of >> as.POSIXlt(strings, format=someFormat) >> and found none?
