Hi, Anyone using wine to read MSOffice attachments automatically from netscape? using native linux netscape -> click on the attachment -> start wine with the correct application (MSword, MSpowerpoint, MSexcel...) and display the contents of the attachment? It works for MSword attachments, when you use: wine '<path to MSoffice>\word.exe' <filename> but not for MSpowerpoint and MSexcel The MS version used is NT4 with MSoffice97... Some thoughts from you might help.... Thanks,...

The client computer tell me that "no more disk space available" writing a msword file to a samba server ( centos 4.2, samba 3.x.??-beta, not shure what version ). Tryed from another pc, the same error. Tryed with another file type ( es: msexcel ) no problem. Double checked permissions, all seems ok. It was working until yesterday. Strange behavior and don't know what to investigate. Have you ever heard about this problem ? Thanks and Hi, Samuele.

For numbers ending in 5 Excel always rounds up and I want to reproduce this in R rather than use the round function. I have tried: x<-as.integer(x*100+0.5)/100 and x<-floor(x*100+0.5)/100 However, some values of x cause problems e.g x<-floor(4.145*100+0.5)/100 4.14 I have tried breaking it down into steps and force the results to 10 significant figures in the following function,

Hello, I am trying to use send_file in my controller to serve up specific content: (.doc, ..xls) Seems to work fine in IE, but in FF (1.0.7, on Windows) after the file d/ls and the app (MS Word, MSExcel) opens up with the content, a blank window comes to the front (gets focus). Any idea how to prevent this? Do I need a redirect_to after the send_file in my controller''s download_file action? Thanks

...abase access package RODBC is now available on CRAN. For those who have never used it, odbc is a database and platform independant API which provides an SQL interface to a large number of database engines. The databases supported include not only SQL based RDBMS but also CSV files, foxbase, dBase, MSExcel etc. ODBC has been promoted mainly by Microsoft and this is where the driver support is most widespread and solid.

Hello, Recently I have been trying to open a huge database with no success. It’s a 4GB csv plain text file with around 2000 rows and over 500,000 columns/variables. I have try with The SAS System, but it reads only around 5000 columns, no more. R hangs up when opening. Is there any way to work with “parts” (a set of columns) of this database, since its impossible to manage it all

I have to reject office files for a certain domain plus notifying the original recipient about the rejection too. require ["fileinto","reject","body","enotify","variables"]; if allof (address :contains ["To","TO","Cc","CC"] "@example.org", body :content? "application/msword" :contains

Dear all, I have set up a two node workin gluster with glusterfs3.1 and Samba-Sernet 3.5. Everything is working great except MSOffice files (Word/Excell). On the gluster-vol they have the strange behavior That they rest read only, write protected. Every other type of files can be manged without problem, openoffice files too. So when I save a word file on the vol and try to change it it is write

Hi. This is my first post to this list, I seem to be graduating to from the r-help list. :-) I'm trying to wrap my R package in a GUI such that when the user launches the app, they see my GUI window and never interact with the R console at all. I don't have any fancy requirements for the GUI itself-- all it needs to do is collect input from the user and pass the input as arguments to

I am looking to build simple GUIs based on the R codes I have. The main objective is to hide the scary R codes from non-programming people and make it easier for them to try out different inputs. For example, 1. The GUI will have means to upload a csv file which will be read by the R code. 2. A button to preprocess data (carried out by a R function behind) 3. A button to build some models

I currently use R at work "under the radar", but there's a chance I could loose that access. I'd like to get our company to feel comfortable with open source and R in particular. Does anyone have any experience with their company's IT department and management that they would be willing to share? How does one get an all Microsoft shop on board with allowing users to user

(I have dealt with similar problems before with RODBC) Thanks for your tip, I have used RODBC before to read data from MSAccess and MSExcel files, but never I imagined it could work for non-database files such as csv.
