Dear David,

I got your point.  How do I remove the data that contain "0.0?".

I tried : balok <- cbind(balok3[,-5], balok3$Rain.mm[balok3$Rain.mm==0.0?]
<- NA)

However all the Rain.mm column all become NA.

   day month year     Time balok3$Rain.mm[balok3$Rain.mm == "0.0?"] <- NA
1   30     7 2008  9:00:00                                             NA
2   30     7 2008 10:00:00                                             NA
3   30     7 2008 11:00:00                                             NA
4   30     7 2008 12:00:00                                             NA
5   30     7 2008 13:00:00                                             NA
6   30     7 2008 14:00:00                                             NA
7   30     7 2008 15:00:00                                             NA
8   30     7 2008 16:00:00                                             NA
9   30     7 2008 17:00:00                                             NA
10  30     7 2008 18:00:00                                             NA

Thank you so much.
