similar to: Read & name multiple excel sheets using RODBC

Dear R experts, I am trying to import some data from some Excle files into R. My Excle file contains about 50 sheets. One solution I can think about is to convert my Excle file into csv file first and then load data into R using 'read.csv'. But it seems to me that 'read.csv' only supports reading one sheet (or 'one file') each time, so that seems I have to create 50 csv

Hi, i'm trying to read some data from excel files but it seems that neither xlsReadWrite nor sqlFetch (RODBC) doesn't like the format (Excel 5.0). When i open the file in Excel and save it in a new format Excel 97 -2003 everything works fine.

I have been trying to read some data from an Excel workbook without success. The workbook is in .xls format and has multiple sheets, one with the sheet name Data, which is the sheet I wish to read from.

Hi I am using package RODBC version 1.0-1 under R version 1.7.1 on Windows XP Pro. I am having problems writing a new table to an (Excel) database using sqlSave.

HI, I have large dataset of many countries. I have written the program to run through each country to generate one output for each country.

Hi, I am hoping to use the RODBC package to write a dataframe to an Excel .xlsx file. The dataframe contains at least one field with character elements that exceed 255 bytes, which appears to be the cell width limit in Excel. Below is example code and the warning message received: library(RODBC) d <-

The Excel 'database' I am pulling from mixes multiple character indicators for different kinds of non-numeric results in the same column as the numeric values. A simple sqlFetch turns all of the character indicators into NAs. I would like to pull in all of the Excel data as character so that I can split the column into multiple types of vectors and control the type conversion within R. Can

Hi all, There have been quite a few threads in the recent months pertaining to the ability to directly write native Excel (.xls) files from R. For example, exporting R matrices and/or data frames to an Excel file, with perhaps the ability to create multiple tabs (worksheets) within a single file, with one tab/sheet per R object. There exists the xlsReadWrite package on CRAN by Hans-Peter Suter,

Dear all, i use the following package/syntax to export data to excel: library(xlsReadWrite) write.xls( exportdata,pfad,colNames = TRUE,sheet = 1,from = 1,rowNames = FALSE ) Everything is fine, but the format of the export is not the best.

A naive question: what happened to the xlsReadWrite package? http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/xlsReadWrite/ It says that it was removed from the CRAN repository. Are there any plans for it be available again? Thanks, Andrew [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Up to now I've used write.csv(), but I have to resave every file in .xls in Excel. I would like to know if there is a function or package to export directly into *.xls. I have found xlsReadWrite which would be
