Dear all I use ggplot2 extensively for my plotting routines and rexcel to have the best of two worlds. (RExcel v 1.75 and R (D)Com v. 2.5) I can run my ggplot functions, such as qplot(...), in scratchpad mode, but not in Macro nor Worksheet functions mode. I have tried the following in Macro mode: Call RInterface.RRun("library(ggplot2)") ... Call RInterface.RRun("qplot(x=Hours,y=pH,data=ds,facets=Sample~.,geom=""line"",group=Cell)") With no output ... I have tried the following in Worksheet function mode: if Range(H40:I42) contains: " (Embedded image moved to file: pic10654.jpg) " and Range(H48) contains: "qplot" The following call: =Rcalla(H48;makeargs(H40:I42)) Gives me no output Scratchpad mode However, right clicking a cell containing: qplot(x=Hours,y=pH,data=ds,facets=Sample~.,geom=""line"",group=Cell) and then selecting "Run R" works like a dream! I would like to develop an excel based GUI for R-data treatment and plotting, and I would like to use ggplot2 as my plotting engine. What am I doing wrong?

I expect that this is the same as FAQ 7.22, though the FAQ should probably be updated to include ggplot as well as lattice/trellis. Basically you need to "print" the graph (in some modes it is automatically printed, so you see it, in other modes it is not autoprinted, so you see nothing), just wrap the calls in print() commands. -- Gregory (Greg) L.

Create an R script,name it "Myggplot2" and place it on your desktop.In excel open the vb editor and write this code: Sub Myggplot2() 'start R Call rinterface.StartRServer 'Put the dataframe into R,assuming that your 'data is in sheet1 cells A1:D1 Call rinterface.PutDataframe("yourdataframename", Range("Sheet1!A1:D" & Range("D1").End(xlDown).Row)) Call rinterface.RRun("attach(yourdataframename)") 'dataframe is attached,now run r script rinterface.RRun "source(""C:/Documents and Settings/Owner/Desktop/Myggplot2.r"")" Call rinterface.StopRServer End Sub Running code from RExcel you must use print(myplot)at the end of the code good luck> > Dear all > > I use ggplot2 extensively for my plotting routines > and rexcel to have the > best of two worlds.
