Hi,
I'm using Sweave to prepare a descriptive report.
Are at least 20 tables built with xtable command of kind:
<<echo=F, results=hide>>q5 = factor(Q5, label=c("N?o",
"Sim"))
(q5.tab = cbind(table(q5)))
@
<<echo=F, results=tex>>xtable(q5.tab, align="l|c",
caption.placement = "top",
table.placement='H')
@
I'm getting the following message:
Too many unprocessed floats
in Latex file.
How to avoid these messages appearing?

You might have a look at the relevant TeX FAQ here: http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=tmupfl Also, while I don't use xtable(), I do believe that you have to call it using the print method directly to specify non-default arguments: print(xtable(q5.tab, align = "l|c"), caption.placement = "top", table.placement = 'H') See the help pages for ?xtable and ?print.table, including the last examples in the former.

Anyway, you need to cause the floats to be processed before you have 'too many'. This is done by adding a \clearpage to the LaTeX portion of your document every so often.
