Sorry, there is no need to subset the data frame,
reshape2::dcast(dta, etc)
will do the same.

Hello,
One of those would be with package reshape2.
dta <- read.csv( "http://doylesdartden.com/R/ExampleData.csv";)
subdta <- dta[, c("Location", "Year", "GW_Elevation")]
res <- reshape2::dcast(subdta, Location ~ Year, value.var = "GW_Elevation")
names(res)[-1] <- paste("GW_Elevation", names(res)[-1], sep = "_")
head(res)
Hope this helps,

Hello,
This is a very frequent question.
I could rewrite one or two answers taken from StackOverflow:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5890584/how-to-reshape-data-from-long-to-wide-format
But there you will have more options.
Hope this helps,

Hello everyone,
I'm trying to generate tables of my data out of R for my report.
My data is setup in the format as follows and the example can be
found at:
http://doylesdartden.com/R/ExampleData.csv
Location Date Year GW_Elevation
127(I) 5/14/2006 2006 752.46
119(I) 5/14/2006 2006 774.67
127(I) 6/11/2007 2007 752.06
119(I) 6/11/2007 2007 775.57
I would like to generate a table that showed
Location GW_Elevation 2006 GW_Elevation 2007 GW_Elevation
xxx.....
119(I) 774.67 775.57
xxxx
127(I) 752.46 752.06
xxxx
XXXX XX XX
Any thoughts on how to transform the data so it would be in this
format??
Thank you for your time
David Doyle
