I have also had problems with outer:

> m<-matrix(rnorm(6),3,2);m
           [,1]      [,2]
[1,] -0.4678067 0.6257795
[2,]  1.3981146 0.6273542
[3,] -0.3987765 1.6764002
> outer(1:3,1:2,function(r,c){paste(r,c)})
     [,1]  [,2] 
[1,] "1 1" "1 2"
[2,] "2 1" "2 2"
[3,] "3 1" "3 2"
> outer(1:3,1:2,function(r,c){m[r,c]})
           [,1]       [,2]
[1,] -0.4678067 -0.4678067
[2,]  1.3981146  1.3981146
[3,] -0.3987765 -0.3987765

I should get m here, but I get first column twice.

(R 1.2.2, w95)
