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 <-

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. I connect to an empty Excel spreadsheet using odbcConnectExcel (which, I believe, uses the Microsoft Excel Driver DSN). Then I try and save a new table to the database(spreadsheet) using SqlSave, but obtain an error message. Below is

Hello! I have no problem reading Excel files (each worksheet in the file is a "table" which can be read - at least in my case). What I would like to do is to read such a table, change it (just the contents, not the format) and write it back, and this I can not do. I am getting the following error messages (3 slightly different attempts): > sqlSave(con, x, tablename =

Hello, All: The "writeFindFn2xls" function in the "sos" package tries to write an Excel file with 3 sheets ('PackageSum2', 'findFn', 'call'). Unfortunately, it is often unable to do this because of configuration problems that are not easy to fix. I've found 3 contributed packages that provide facilities to write Excel files with

Hello, I am trying to play with RODBC library and Excel Files. In my file (doubs.xls) there are 2 spreadsheets: > library(RODBC) > connection<-odbcConnect("Excel Files") > sqlTables(connection) TABLE_CAT TABLE_SCHEM TABLE_NAME TABLE_TYPE REMARKS 1 F:\\Th?se\\R\\Doubs NA Faune$ SYSTEM TABLE NA 2 F:\\Th?se\\R\\Doubs NA Milieu$

I am using sqlSave to save my data into an existing table at MS SQL Server database. Previously my code ran smoothly but all of a sudden it stopped working. Here is my code: sqlSave(con, highVol, "dbo.futuresHighVol", append=TRUE, rownames=FALSE) Error: sqlSave(con, highVol, "jrgchis.dbo.futuresHighVol", append = TRUE, : 42S01 2714 [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL

Hi, I've got a problem with RODBC and saving (sqlSave) of a dataframe in Access. R 2.0.1 is running on windows XP. When executing the examples in R help for the "USArrests" data set "sqlSAve" works fine, but running sqlSave() for a dataframe "Adat" > str(Adat) `data.frame': 1202 obs. of 18 variables: containing 18 columns and ca. 1200 rows fails.

Hi, I noticed that if a column is named "end" in a data frame (table.df below), it leads to errors when trying to sqlSave()'it to a postgresql connection: ---<---------------cut here---------------start-------------->--- con <- odbcConnect("PostgreSQL-DB", uid="user", pwd="password", case="postgresql") R>

Dear list, Being new to both the postgres database, ODBC and the RODBC interface, I am somewhat confused by some of the problems I am experiencing trying to connect R to the database. Whai I am trying is basically the example part of the help file for the sqlSave function: > library(RODBC) > odbcConnect("theodor") -> channel > data(USArrests) > sqlSave(channel,

Hi, i get error after using a data.frame with subset for "sqlSave". What can i do ? It seems that lines like this in a data.frame structure are after subset deleted and cause the error ? - attr(*, "variable.labels")= Named chr "CUSID" "Welle" "Arbeitgeberfavorit1" "Aktuelle Bewerbungssituation" ... ..- attr(*, "names")=

I am using R-2.10.1 binary from CRAN on a WinXP Pro system. I also use SAS v9.2 on the same box. I just started using the SAS ODBC driver that comes with version 9 of SAS. I have been able to set up an ODBC source for SAS datasets using the driver, and then with RODBC I am able to read a sample SAS dataset. > library(RODBC) > ch <- odbcConnect('sasodbc', believeNRows=FALSE)

Dear Prof. Ripley et al., I have a data frame with some variable names that contain the underscore character ('_'). It seems that RODBC is not converting them to a suitable variable name for MySQL. > sqlSave(channel, zz, addPK = TRUE, verbose = TRUE) Query: CREATE TABLE zz (rownames varchar(255) PRIMARY KEY, NAME varchar(255), ID varchar(255), GROUP varchar(255), OAC_RT double,

I am running R version 2.9.2 on Windows XP OS with RODBC version Version: 1.3-0. Has anyone out there in the R user community successfully appended records to a DB2 table on a remote database using the sqlSave function in the RODBC package? (or by any other means from R?) I posed a similar question a few months ago and unfortunately, did not receive a response. I was hoping recent upgrades to

Dear R users, I've learned today about RODBC package in order to import xls file to dataframes and export the dataframes to xls files. However I have some problems. Please excuse me if these are basic but as I said, I've just begun with this package. Also this email is quite long, but everything is related, so I don't think it would be better to split it. Moreover, there's a

Hola Javier, si no estoy entendiendo mal, lo q deseo hacer no se trata de configurar los parametros SQL, sino solo de colocar un vector en el argumento VarTypes de la funcion sqlSave. El manual especifica esa opcion, pero no da ningun ejemplo de como usarla. *varTypes an optional named character vector giving the DBMSs datatypes to be used for* *some (or all) of the columns if a table is to be

Hi all, I am currently trying to read, write and append data between R and MS access using the RODBC library functions. I have no problems reading in the data but when using sqlSave and sqlAppend it doesn't seem to work. I have made sure that all the column names are sensible and there are no gaps etc in the variables. My call looks like this: sqlSave(channel,treatlist,test=F) I've

Buen dia Javier, muchas gracias por tu ayuda y el script compartido. Me va a servir como ayuda para seguir aprendiendo sobre RODBC pero no encuentro una solucion para este problema puntual de poder definir el tipo y ancho de las variables, q segun creo se hace con el argumento varTypes. Si alguien tien algun ejemplo donde haya usado la SqlSave y VarTypes, me sera de gran ayuda. Abrazo a todos

Dear R-community, After repeating the sqlSave-command 3 times on a dataframe (of size 13149 rows * 5 columns) to my MS-Access database I get the following error: *Error in sqlSave(channel, eksport_transp_acc_2, "transp_acc_scenarier", : unable to append to table ‘transp_acc_scenarier’* ** This means that the first 2 savings are completed, but the third-one is somehow not. I have an

Hi List, just to know if the issue is only a problem of mine or if it is a general issue due to the new MS Office pack. I'm using R 2.11.1 32 bits in a Windows 7 x64 with the MS office 2010 x64 installed. I can import .xls files normally (the same way I did with my Excel 2007 32 bits). But the function odbcConnectExcel2007 isn't able to import .xlsx files now that I have the new version of

I have a Postgres database that I am connecting to with the Postgres ODBC driver on Windows XP in R 2.1.0. In the database is a database with two schemas (public and X). With RODBC (1.1-4) , I can connect to the database and get the tables with sqlTables(db). I can query tables in the schema with sqlQuery("SELECT * FROM X.test"). However, I can't get the columns in table X.test
