   Hi all,



   I  want  to  make  extra  columns in my datafile where the id of every
   groupmember is mentioned in separate columns. To explain it better see the
   example:



   id<-c(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12)

   group<-c(1,1,1,1,2,2,3,3,3,3,3,3)

   a<-as.data.frame(cbind(id,group))

   a

      id group

   1   1     1

   2   2     1

   3   3     1

   4   4     1

   5   5     2

   6   6     2

   7   7     3

   8   8     3

   9   9     3

   10 10     3

   11 11     3

   12 12     3



   Result should be (gm = groupmember)


   id  group   gm1         gm2       gm3      gm4           gm5       gm6
     gm7            etc.

   11       3            7               8              9              10

   12       3            7               8              9              10
   11          NA             NA



   What I have been trying so far is reshape, but this doesn’t put the id’s of
   the groupmembers of different groups under the same columnname. It makes new
   columnnames per group.


   Couls somebody help me out with this? I really appreciate it
