Madana,

The code below may work (untested though):

#above is the same as you wrote
require(multicore)

read.data.exmple <- function(f)
{
       dat <- read.csv(f, header=FALSE, sep="\t", na.strings="",dec=".",
strip.white=TRUE, fill=TRUE)
       data_1 <- sqldf("SELECT V2, V14, MIN(V16) FROM dat WHERE V6=104 GROUP
BY
V2, V14")
       data_1
}

DF <- mclapply(a, read.data.example)

#you can check the components of DF by DF[[1]], DF[[2]] ..., which is a bit
different from rbind
#feel free to add more arguments to function read.data.example and add those
to mclapply accordingly

Hope this helps.

Regards,
Lei
