Try the function sqlFetch to import the data in the spreadsheet.
jo<-odbcConnectExcel("i:\\all\\sorkinjohn\\stats\\silvermannatalie\\NEMOcomb
ined06-24-09.xls",readOnly = TRUE)
mo<-sqlFetch(jo,'Your Sheet Name or Number',colnames=F,rownames=F)
mo
Hope it helps.

Assunto: [R] RODBC: Trying to read an Excel file
R 2.8
Windows XP
Excel 2003
I am trying to read an Excel spread sheet. I have looked at the RODBC help
pages and am having trouble setting up code that will work. My code and the
results are pasted below:
>
jo<-odbcConnectExcel("i:\\all\\sorkinjohn\\stats\\silvermannatalie\\NEMOcomb
ined06-24-09.xls",readOnly = TRUE)> mo<-sqlGetResults(jo)
> mo
[1] -1
I have tried to set up the connection string using odbcConnectExcel and then
have tried to read the file using sqlGetResults. Can someone tell me what I
am doing wrong?
Thanks,
John
