R help - Oct 2004 - Sweave and xtable

Dear List:

I have some coded embedded within a LaTeX document where I subset a
dataframe and use xtable to place it in my appendix. However, one of the
tables is rather large and seems to extend beyond the page length.

Is there a nice way to use Sweave to continue this table onto the next
page? I could easily break this up in tex into two tables, but I imagine
there is a better way of doing so.

Thanks,

Harold

If xtable will not do that, you can use latex( ) in the Hmisc package 
with its longtable=TRUE argument.
