R help - Mar 2009 - How to combine xtable and minipage with Sweave ?

Hello,

I'm trying to put a dynamic table and a dynamic graph side by side in a pdf
document using Sweave.
The data.frame used to generate the table is called rg (rg.txt):

"Date"; "Code"; "Data1"; "Data2"
"2009-03-10";"1";1958;147
"2009-03-10";"2";302;144
"2009-03-10";"3";4;141
"2009-03-10";"4";4;144
"2009-03-10";"5";217;145
"2009-03-10";"6";133;147
"2009-03-10";"7";431;144
"2009-03-10";"8";177;142
"2009-03-10";"9";146;143
"2009-03-10";"10";123;142
"2009-03-10";"11";308;143
"2009-03-10";"12";115;144
"2009-03-10";"13";146;142
"2009-03-10";"14";124;143
"2009-03-10";"15";176;142
"2009-03-10";"16";177;143

The Sweave script to test, saved as test_minipage_sweave.rnw, is the
following one (I'm a newbie in Latex and R so I pasted some commands I found
here and there) :
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

\documentclass[a4paper]{article}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[frenchb]{babel}
\usepackage{geometry}
\usepackage{color, pdfcolmk}
\usepackage[mediumqspace]{SIunits}


\geometry{a4paper,left=1cm,right=1cm,top=1cm,bottom=1.5cm}
\date{}

\begin{document}

\DefineVerbatimEnvironment{Sinput}{Verbatim}{formatcom = {\color[rgb]{0, 0,
0.56}}}
\DefineVerbatimEnvironment{Soutput}{Verbatim}{formatcom = {\color[rgb]{0.56,
0, 0}}}
\setkeys{Gin}{width=\textwidth}

<<echo=FALSE, results=TEX>>
rg<-read.table(file="d:/RWork/rg.txt", sep=";",
dec=".", header=T, as.is=T)
@

\begin{figure}[ht]
\begin{minipage}[b]{0.5\linewidth}
\centering
<<RsingleA,echo=F,fig=T,width=2.5,height=2.5>>plot(1:10)
@
\caption{First figure}
\label{fig:figure1}
\end{minipage}
\end{figure}

\hspace{0.5cm}

\begin{minipage}{0.7\textwidth}

  <<echo=FALSE, results=TEX>>  library(xtable)
  print(xtable(kw), include.rownames=F)
  @

\end{minipage}

\end{document}
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The following commands :
     Sweave("D:/RWork/test_minipage_sweave.rnw")
     shell("pdflatex D:/RWork/test_minipage_sweave.tex")
give me a .pdf file containing the graph but instead of the table I have
this text, below the graph :
echo=FALSE, results=TEX = library(xtable) print(xtable(kw),
include.rownames=F) @

It means that it doesn't recognize a R command but I don't kno why. And
it
is a problem with minipage because I managed to create a pdf file with only
the table.

Could someone give me a solution or at least a working example which I can
modify ?
Thanks in advance,
Have a nice week-end,
Ptit Bleu.

1) There were typos in your code. It should be

  print(xtable(rg), include.rownames=F)

and it should be results=tex, not TEX

2) <<>> must start at column 0, this is the first error

3) Check about the rules of minipage and floats. See the sequence
for the figure in the tex code; this gives the typical "Not in outer
mode" error
