Hi Michael,

Ah I see.  Thanks

$ locate RData
/home/userA/.RData
/usr/lib/R/site-library/qtl/data/badorder.RData
/usr/lib/R/site-library/qtl/data/bristle3.RData
/usr/lib/R/site-library/qtl/data/bristleX.RData
/usr/lib/R/site-library/qtl/data/fake.4way.RData
/usr/lib/R/site-library/qtl/data/fake.bc.RData
/usr/lib/R/site-library/qtl/data/fake.f2.RData
/usr/lib/R/site-library/qtl/data/hyper.RData
/usr/lib/R/site-library/qtl/data/listeria.RData
/usr/lib/R/site-library/qtl/data/map10.RData


I left out following step;

> write.csv(data, "petdrug.csv")
> q()
without saving. 


$ locate petdrug.csv
/home/userA/petdrug.csv


petdrug.csv can be read on OpenOffice Calc and edited there.
