    There's just one more step you need to do after following the example given in the help page for GenMatch(). If you call the object returned by Match() "mout" as in the example, you can use mout$index.treated and mout$index.control, e.g. rbind(X[mout$index.treated, ], X[mout$index.control, ]) to get the matched dataset.

    Siqi, if you wan to send me your email address, I can send you the code I used to output the matched dataset using the genetic match package that I called from within the MatchIt R package (I don't seem able to paste in my code into the ASA Community web page).
