RODBC does not like table names >11/12 characters
Hi List,
I used to access a Paradox database using RODBC, but since last week I
am not able anymore to fetch any table which has a name longer than 11
or 12 characters.
Here is the the pattern of my code, nothing spectacular:
library(RODBC)
channel2<-odbcDriverConnect('DSN=xxx')
#table names with up to 11 characters still work
sqlFetch(channel2, 'abcdefghijk')
#table names

RODBC: sqlQuery is successful, but a similar sqlFetch returns error
Greetings guRus --
I have successfully queried a large (24,445 rows by 281 cols.) in-house
database using the following RODBC query (without the line breaks)
testout <- sqlQuery(channel, "select idSchedule,EXCL_Total from
dbo.vwC1198_2006_RawData_With_CMPL_EXCL")
This returns a dataframe of 24445 rows and two columns (as intended),

SAS ODBC
All,
I'm trying to connect to a remote SAS server using SAS's 9.1 ODBC driver
and the RODBC package. I'm running R-2.6.1 on Win XP. I can successfully
connect to the database, but no matter which table I query, I get back
an empty table with only the column headers. For example:

Problem reading PostgreSQL data with RODBC
Dear list -
I am having a problem using RODBC to access records from tables in a PostgreSQL database.
There is no problem establishing the connection using chnl <- odbcConnect (dsn= ... etc.
The DSN seems to be properly set up using the PostgreSQL Unicode ODBC driver, and
sqlTables(chnl) works OK and produces a list of tables in the database (they are all in a schema called 'source').

Reading Text Files with RODBC
I'm thoroughly stumped. I've been playing with RODBC and wanted to see if I could retrieve data from text files using this package as well (for the most part, this is an intellectual exercise, but occasionally I do get data files large enough in CSV format RODBC could be helpful) .
I set up a DNS called "Text Files" and then ran the following code in R

RODBC bug or doc error in sqlFetch on xls files (PR#7354)

This may not come as a surprise -- sqlFetch() (and perhaps other ?) appear

was not able to find documentation that specifically mentioned this,

Re ading multiple Excel 2007 files with a loop

RODBC and schemas
I have found that the "schema.table" syntax used in Postgresql (and
Oracle) does not work directly with RODBC.
This works

Problem with RODBC
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. One
complication is that the header row of this sheet is comprised of
dropdown boxes.
I tried what I normally would do plus some variations. Here is the output.

So would it be possible to get samba to "move" files instead of deleting
