[R] Subsets without NA

[Gary Collins]

try
> x.old
   V1 V2 V3 V4
1 NA  2  3  4
2  5  6  7  8
3  9 NA 11 12
4  1  2  3  4

> x.new_x.old[-c(unique(which(apply(is.na(x.old),  FUN=any,
MARGIN=1)==TRUE))),]
> x.new
  V1 V2 V3 V4
2  5  6  7  8
4  1  2  3  4

removes a row with at least 1 missing value
if you want to take out rows which have all missing values, change the FUN
to all
