Hi All I'm trying to use R to create a temporary table in Teradata and then add rows from data frame into the temporary volatile table in R Based on the code below (I have changed the SQL slightly), I am able to create the temporary table in my spool space but when I try add the data frame mydata to it, R tells me it cannot find the table My assumption here is that it is looking for the "real" table as opposed to the temp table in spool space. Can anyone see the problem? # RShowDoc("teradataR", package="teradataR") - Manual #RShowDoc("RODBC", package="RODBC") library(RODBC) library(teradataR) # Import Data From Text File and remove duplicates mydata = read.table("c:/Users/user/Desktop/ Keys.txt") mydata.unique = unique(mydata) # Create SQL for Temp Table in Teradata strSQL.TempTable = "CREATE VOLATILE TABLE TEMP_Keys (keys VARCHAR (39)) UNIQUE PRIMARY INDEX(key) ON COMMIT PRESERVE ROWS;" # Connect To Teradata DB channel <- odbcConnect('DB') # Execute Temp Table sqlQuery(channel, paste(strSQL.TempTable)) sqlUpdate(channel, mydata, tablename = "TEMP_Keys", fast = TRUE) Any Help would be greatly appreciated KEYWORDS: Volatile, SQL, R, RODBC, teradataR REF: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/24740751/error-with-creating-volatile-tab le-in-teradata [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
