oops, then i guess i should not have sent the recode suggestion.

correct.

Hi: John Fox's recode function in his car package provides a convenient
way for doing what
you need. I don't know what your factor is specifically but below is
mostly taken out
of the help for "recode" and shows how to take a factor and recode it to
make it a new
factor. you can apply that for
