Hi Guys,

I was wondering how you would go about solving the following problem:

I have a list where the grouping information is in the row names.

Rowname [,1]

X1Jan08  324
X1Jun08  65
X1Dec08  543
X2Jan08  23
X2Jun08  54
X2Dec08  8765
X3Jan08  213
X3Jun08  43
X3Dec08  65

How can I create the following dataframe:
       Value    Date    Group
[1,]  324      Jan 08    X1
[2,]  65       Jun 08    X1
[3,]  543     Dec 08    X1
 etc.................

Thanks for your help!
James
