I´m trying to automate a task in R. I need to create an object named with a expression that I extracted from a table. In this example the object is P1 and the named is extracted with as.expression. 

 P1<-(cbind(table.df[1,], table.df.sum))
P1TEXT<-as.expression(row.names(Table.df)[1])

I want P1 to be named with the expression extracted by P1TEXT Thank you very much

    You can use `assign(x = as.character(P1TEXT), value = P1)`. (Of course you don't need the intermediate `P1` and `P1TEXT` values... or the `as.expression`. You could go straight to `assign(row.names(table.df)[1], value = cbind(...))`.)
