I've been having some issues with sqlSave, and I think I've found an clue that may identify the problem. In the code at http://pastebin.com/W6UGKep9, I connect to a Netezza instance, make a simple table, and query it. Despite sqlSave succeeding without error, sqlQuery tells me that the table doesn't exist. Also, when I query the database outside of R, I see that the table doesn't exist. However, using sqlFetch works, and (perhaps, as expected) the table is dropped upon evaluating close(myConn). Also, sqlDrop works as expected. Thanks for your time. Any thoughts are appreciated.
