hi
i created two files in excel with a dbf format in a similar way. the first is
opened in R, however, when i try to open the second. i received the following
message:
sites.can <- read.csv("SITES.csv")
Error in read.table(file = file, header = header, sep = sep, quote = quote, :
more columns than column names>
The second file works with the same command
larynx.can <- read.csv("LARYNX.csv")>
SO, WHAT IS THE SOLUTIO????????????
Regards
Ahmed

Please do not shout. 2. Please read the posting guide. 3. Please use a sensible subject. 4. Please read ?read.csv 5. You might want to check if the format of that csv files are really identical and check if the column names are strange (including comments or separators). If it still does not work, send us the first few lines of that file. We cannot look at it otherwise!
