> Dear all R users,
>    
>   Suppose I have a data frame "data" like this:
>    
>   5/2/2006      36560
>  5/3/2006     36538
>  5/4/2006     36452
>  5/5/2006     36510
>  5/8/2006     36485
>  5/9/2006     36502
>  5/10/2006     36584
>  5/11/2006    36571
>    
>   Now I want to create a for loop like this:
>    
>   date = "5/10/2006"
> for (i in 1: 8)
>    {
>     if (data[i,1] > date) break
>    }
>    
>   But I get error while executing this. Can anyone tell me the right way to do this?
