[farnoosh sheikhi]

Hi Sarah,
Thanks for getting back to me.Here is an example of my data:SampleData <- structure(list(id = 1:7, value = c(5813L, 8706L, 4049L, 5877L,                                              1375L, 2223L, 3423L), date = structure(c(4L, 3L, 2L, 1L, 7L,                                                                                       6L, 5L), .Label = c("05/12/11", "06/05/11", "07-Dec-11",                                                                                                           "19-Dec-11", "01/22/2011", "10/19/2011", "31/12/2011"                                                                                      ), class = "factor")), .Names = c("id", "value", "date"), row.names = c(NA,                                                                                                                                                               -7L), class = "data.frame")SampleData

You sent this to the R-help list, not just to Arun, so I'm assuming
this is an R question. The best way to get help is to provide a sample
of your data using dput() and to clearly specify what you would like
as the result - "unify" is a bit vague. paste(x, collapse="") could be
considered unification, after all.
