Many thanks for your suggestions,

fortunately when I closed R and opeedn it again, it did not give again
that error. However, now there is something more strange happening,
related again to sparse matrix, and I am afraid it could concern
memory problems (I put 4000 of memory limit).

I am defining a matrix where I have nrow=113289, ncol=36698 such as:

D<- as.matrix.csr(0, nrow, ncol)

Error in if (length(x) == nrow * ncol) x <- matrix(x, nrow, ncol) else { :
  missing value where TRUE/FALSE needed
In addition: Warning message:
In nrow * ncol : NAs produced by integer overflow

With reduced number of rows and columns it worked, so I am wondering
wether it is a problem of memory. My pc has 6gb of nmemory, and it is
64-bit windows system, but R reads only 4 has capacity.

Thanks for your help
alessia
