Hi Eric Thanks for that. That seems to fix one problem (the lack of a separator), but introduces a new one when I complete the function Calum proposed:Error in docx_summary() : argument "x" is missing, with no default The whole code so far looks like this: # Load libraries library(tcltk) library(tidyverse) library(officer) filepath <- setwd(tk_choose.dir()) filename <-

An update: Running this block of code: # Load libraries library(tcltk) library(tidyverse) library(officer) filepath <- setwd(tk_choose.dir()) filename <- "Now they want us to charge our electric cars from litter bins.docx" #full_filename <- paste0(filepath, filename) full_filename <- paste(filepath, filename, sep="/") if (!file.exists(full_filename)) { ?

Hi Roy (& others) Many thanks for the advice - well taken. Thanks also to the others who have responded so quickly - I thought I might have to wait days!! :-) I'm on a Linux (Mint) machine. Below, I document three attempts, two using officer and the last now using textreadr My attempts so far using 'officer': ################## (1) First Attempt: # Load libraries

Thanks Ivan and Calum I continue to appreciate your support. Calum, I entered the code snippet you provided, and it returns 'file missing'. Looking at this, while the object 'full_filename' exists, what is happening is that the path from getwd() is being appended to the title of the article, but without the '/' between the end of the path name (here 'TEST' and

I would also look at https://pandoc.org perhaps which can export a number of formats... And for spreadsheets https://github.com/jqnatividad/qsv is my goto weapon. Can also read and write XLSX and others. A sample document or two would always be helpful... el On 29/12/2023 21:01, CALUM POLWART wrote: > It sounded like he looked at officeR but I would agree > > content <-

It sounded like he looked at officeR but I would agree content <- officer::docx_summary("filename.docx") Would get the text content into an object called content. That object is a data.frame so you can then manipulate it. To be more specific, we might need an example of the DF You can loop this easily with a for statement although there are people who prefer a non-for approach to

Thanks - I'll have a look at these options too. I'm happy to send over a sample document, but wasn't aware if attachments are allowed. The documents come Lexis+, so require user credentials to log in, but I could upload the file somewhere if that would help? Any ideas for a good location to do so?

Hi Andy: I don?t have an answer but I do have what I hope is some friendly advice. Generally the more information you can provide, the more likely you will get help that is useful. In your case you say that you tried several packages and they didn?t do what you wanted. Providing that code, as well as why they didn?t do what you wanted (be specific) would greatly facilitate things. Happy

checkout the 'officer' package Thanks Jim Holtman *Data Munger Guru* *What is the problem that you are trying to solve?Tell me what you want to do, not how you want to do it.* On Fri, Dec 29, 2023 at 10:14?AM Andy <phaedrusv at gmail.com> wrote: > Hello > > I am trying to work through a problem, but feel like I've gone down a > rabbit hole.
