 Hi,
Your mistake is related with   "read.table(n)". I haven`t got what you want
but I put an example below (where I used loop to read many files). Hope it
helps. Anyway, I thougth should have sent your question to

<r-help@r-project.org>.
Bye
Nilza


=====example ====================
nomesout <- dir(dat.dir,pattern="^[s]") #obtem no diretorio de atual todos
arquivo iniciado com a letra s

OUT <- read.table(paste(dat.dir,nomesout[1] ,sep = ""),header = FALSE, sep =
",", na.strings = c("/","///","////","/////","//////"))

for(i in 2:length(nomesout)){

Y <- read.table(paste(dat.dir,nomesout[i] ,sep = ""),header = FALSE, sep =
",")

OUT <- rbind(OUT, Y)

}

OUT <- OUT[-1,] ## Remove linhas em branco
