Dear All,

I would like to to group the Ticker by Industry and create file names from
the
Industry Factor  and export to a txt file.

I have tried the folowing 

ind=finvizAllexETF$Industry

ind is then  "Aluminum"          "Business Services" "Regional Airlines"

ind2=gsub(" " ,"",ind)
 ind3
[1] "Aluminum"         "BusinessServices" "RegionalAirlines"

> for (i in 1:3) ind3[i]<- AllexETF$Ticker[AllexETF$Industry==ind2[i]]

Warning messages:
1: In ind3[i] <- finvizAllexETF$Ticker[AllexETF$Industry == ind2[i]] :
  number of items to replace is not a multiple of replacement length
