to anyone who can assist

i use the following code to produce a two by two table of means and find 
the minimum value (i use print as this occurs within an interation loop), 
viz:

tempSearch<-tapply(outcome,list(variableOne,variableTwo),mean)
print(tempSearch)
print(min(tempSearch))
tempSearch.rr<-row(tempSearch)[tempSearch==min(tempSearch)]
tempSearch.cc<-col(tempSearch)[tempSearch==min(tempSearch)]
print(cbind(rownames=dimnames(tempSearch)[[1]][tempSearch.rr],columnnames=dimnames(tempSearch)[[2]][tempSearch.cc]))

could anyone suggest how i would go about getting splus to calculate the 
row and column totals for this two by two table, and then print out  
tables viz:

variableOne(Level 1) Row Total
variableTwo(Level 2) Row Total
etc

and

variableTwo(Level 1) Column Total
variableTwo(Level 2) Column Total
etc

any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
