[R] Beginner Question: List value without Levels

[Joshua Wiley]

Hi Dabs,

If those are your two objects, could you post the output from:

dput(myVal)
dput(data)

The output of dput() can be copied and pasted into the console and
then we have the data on our systems exactly as you do on yours.  From
there it should be easy to show you how to do what you want.

Cheers!

Josh
