Hi I am new in the R world and hopefully this is the right forum to ask. My backend is an Ingres database to which I connect via ODBC I have defined a DSN which connects ok to myh backend But when I try the following library(RODBC) channel <- odbcConnect("pirar01") load("a.rdata") sqlSave(channel, a, tablename = "Table1", append = FALSE, rownames = FALSE, colnames = FALSE, verbose = TRUE) It fails: Query: INSERT INTO "Table1" ( "strategy", "par1", "par2", "par3", "par4", "par5", "par6", "timeinmarket", "totalprofit", "annualizedreturns", "annualizedvol", "informationratio", "ewar", "maxdd", "sp500corr", "rsquared", "avgholding", "maxholding", "meanmktdayreturn", "probmktdayprofit" ) VALUES ( ?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,? ) Error in odbcUpdate(channel, query, mydata, coldata[m, ], test = test, : missing columns in 'data' The table gets created but it is empty Any ideas , suggestions ?
