I read a table from Microsoft Access using RODBC. Some of the variables had
a name with a space in it.
R has no problem with it but I do.
I cannot find out how to specify the space

names(alltime)
 [1] "ID"            "LVL7"          "Ref Pv No"     "Ref Pv Name"   "DOS"
        "Pt Last Name"  "Pt First Name" "MRN"           "CPT"           "CPT
Desc"      "DxCd1"         "DxCd2"         "DxCd3"         "DxCd4"
[15] "DOE"

But what do I do if I want to do something such as this
> alltime[grep("MIDDLE EAR EXPLORE",alltime$CPT Desc,]
Error: unexpected symbol in "alltime[grep("MIDDLE EAR EXPLORE",alltime$CPT
Desc"
