Thanks. 

I should have restated my question more clear. What I am looking for is a
method to calculate Pearson R for a large matrix, and handle the NA value
(with dif options) in the meantime, like what cor() does on a matrix for
Pearson correlation. I know I can write my own function with rank() and
cor(). I just want to find out if other people have already made the
available. 

Nick
