I a have a text file where every line is like that: "2007-12-03 13:50:17 Juan Perez" ("yy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss First Name Second Name") I would like to make a data frame with two column one for date and the other one for name. When I use read.delim it was transformed in a data frame with 4 colums. Bye, Sebastián.
