similar to: append within worksheet in write.xls

As part of my project to put different types of results into worksheets, I would like to be able to put an auto-generated methods section. If I compose in RWinEdt, read into R, and use write.table with a .txt file extension, what I get out has line-breaks that correspond to those I put in in the first place. If I do the same thing but write.xls with .xls extention, I get an Excel worksheet

Hi, I would like to some excel files with some worksheets. I tried this with the following R script: library(gdata) i<-1 rc<-0 while(rc != "try-error") { wksh<-try(read.xls("cluster-microarray-FW.xls",sheet=i,verbose=TRUE,perl="perl")) rc<-class(wksh) print(sprintf("------- i=%2d rc=%s ---------------",i,rc)) if (rc !=

Hi useRs, I would like to know what R users are employing to get their images/plots created in R, into Excel sheets. I am aware of the various packages (xlsReadWrite, RODBC) to get data frames into R, but I would like to copy images too. Thank you for any help in solving this problem. Regards, Harsh Singhal

Hi list, Is there a R function I can use to extract the worksheet names from an Excel file?? If no, any other automatic ways (not using R) to do this? thanks! ...Tao

Dear R-users, I have to read data from a worksheet that is available on the Internet. I have been doing this by copying the worksheet from the browser. But I would like to be able to copy the data automatically using the url command. But when using "url" command the result is the source code, I mean, a html code. I see that the data I need is in the source code but before thinking

Hi, If I open up a worksheet in MS Excel 97, the file name is modified by appending an extra .xls to the name. Multiple .xls's are possible, and it is not necessary to save the worksheet. I'm running Wine-20010305 compiled on a SuSE 7.0 running a stock 2.4.2 Linux kernel. MS Excel is being run from an existing Win98 system partition. Thought someone might want to know, Dick --

Hans-Peter and other R developers, How are you? Have you made any progess with embedding Url's in Excel? Well, I have been busy thinking of more things for you to do;) My colleagues in the lab are not R literate, and some are barely computer literate, so I give them everything in Excel workbooks. I have gradually evolved a system such that these workbooks have become compendia of my

Hi - I have a dataframe of (x,y) values. I'd like to fit an exponential curve to the data for further statistical analysis (pretty much the same functionality provided by Excel's LOGEST worksheet array function). Can someone point me to the (set of) functions/ package that is best suited to provide this functionality? Admittedly, I am a novice in the use of R statistical functions,

R 2.0.0 patched under win2000. MS Office Excel 2003. ODBC Drivers? This may not come as a surprise -- sqlFetch() (and perhaps other ?) appear not to handle table/worksheet names with spaces in them in Excel tables. I was not able to find documentation that specifically mentioned this, although the Help pages vaguely hinted that there might be difficulty with Excel's "peculiar

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 =

(I'm afraid this post didn't reach the list on last Wednesday, here it is again ) hi R-list, And sorry for my frenglish ! I am running R < Good Sport > release ( i386-w64-mingw32/i386 (32-bit) ) ) under Windows 7 Professional, Service Pack 1. My perl executable is ActivePerl build 817 [257965] (i.e. version 5.8.8.817). Usually it is working fine. Using the gdata ::read.xls

Folks, Is there a parameter somewhere in RODBC that enables more columns to be retrieved from an Excel worksheet? # This next bit uses an undocumented call in RODBC z <- odbcConnectExcel("./BBaselinePtQaires_apr2011.xls") BQ <- sqlFetch(z, "BBaselinePtQaires") Gives me: z RODBC[1] And BQ 134 obs. of 59 variables I have all the rows in the worksheet but only the

Hi list, I just installed the rcom package and tried to read/give out some values from/to Excel. Altogether it works great... but nevertheless I don't know how the syntax works or in other words: "Which command needs which parameters?" Is there somwhere a manual about this package with good examples? I've read the Package description... but there are not really good

Jorge was kind enough to point out that I made a mistake in referencing gabor's solution. See below.

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,

I?ve got an Excel workbook with about 30 worksheets. Each worksheet has 10000 rows of data over 30 columns. I?d like to read the data from each worksheet into a dataframe or matrix in R for processing. Normally, I use read.csv when interacting with Excel but I?d rather manipulate a multisheet workbook directly than set about splitting the original workbook and saving down each part as a csv.

Dear all, I would like to import a range of cells (e.g. F10:K234) from an Excel worksheet to R. I have looked for documentation on RODBC and RDCOMClient but I was not able to find enough information to solve my problem and all the examples I have seen were dealing with an entire worksheet, not a range of cells.

I am having a problem in reading the columns from an xls file. Following is the code: workbook = Spreadsheet::ParseExcel.parse(params[:dump][:file]) worksheet = workbook.worksheet(0) skip=0 worksheet.each(skip) { |row| puts row.at(0) } I am storing "Customer" in the first row first column. When I print, it is received as

I would like to open OpenOffice (LibreOffice) .ods files in R. I've tried the ROpenOffice package from omegahat, but unfortunately, the read.ods() function attempts to use the values of the first column in a worksheet as row names, and thus does not allow duplicates in there (which, even more unfortunately, occur in my files). Also, the function does not allow to forward any other
