Dear R-SIG-Debian, while trying to query data from an SQLite database through RODBC on Debian testing, R crashes with the following message: library(RODBC) con3 <- odbcConnect("test3") # 'test3' being an ODBC datasource configured with SQLite3 driver, # but the same happens with SQLite driver sqlQuery(con3, "select * from test") # 'test' being any table

Hi, I'm attempting to use the RODBC package on Windows Vista to import an excel spreadsheet. The spreadsheet has three worksheets the last of which is blank. Following an example in Phil Spector's book (p. 34), after creating a connection named con I did the following: > con RODBC Connection 3 Details: case=nochange DBQ=c:\temp\test.xls DefaultDir=c:\temp

Can someone throw light on the following problem I am having with RODBC? There's an Excel file I am trying to read from, it has one sheet named 'nameclass'. Thanks in anticipation.

I've noticed that RODBC seems to be an order of magnitude slower in retrieving rows from a table than ODBC (or JDBC) access in other tools. I'm wondering why that is, and whether there are things I can do to improve performance beyond what I've tried. I've checked the documentation, and have tried the rows_at_time= and buffsize= options, which helped a little, but it is still

Hi all, I am encountering an RODBC problem in R 2.15.1 in windows 64 bit which I do not encountered in the same set up in windows 32 bit (the latest binary version of RODBC in both cases from the same depository gotten by install.packages(‘RODBC’), Oracle ODBC client software installed in 64 and 32 bit respectively) 1. The code looks like library(RODBC) credentials <-

Hello, We are having some strange issues with RODBC related to integer columns. Whenever we do a sql query the data in a integer column is 150 actual data points then 150 0's then 150 actual data points then 150 0's. However, our database actually has numbers where the 0's are filled in. Furthermore, other datatypes do not have this problem: double and varchar are correct and do not

Dear R users, I am trying to connect R to data that is in a Access Database but I have problem with the construction of queries using special characters. I am using RODBC package. The following is working : > MyQuery<-paste("SELECT first( (DateHeure) ) , avg(NNO3_AT322_OUT_moy) AS Cond FROM Colonne_3 ") > Col3<-sqlQuery(con, query=MyQuery) > Col3

Hi, I'm using R-2.8.1 for windows. I wrote a script calls the RODBC package to run sql queries against an oracle database. It runs fine when run from the rconsole and returns a data.frame with a summary for a set of experiments. I want to run this script using the rinterface.RunRFile command in an excel plugin, using the rexcel package. When I run the code from my excel plugin I

I am trying to connect to an internal database and use the sqlQuery command to reduce and retrieve data using the following code: channel <-odbcConnect("some_dsn", uid="", pwd="") txt<-'SELECT Date, Region, Price FROM TableXYZ WHERE Type="Domestic"' sqlQuery(channel, cat(txt,"\n"),errors=TRUE,) close(channel) However, I get the

Hello, I am new to the RODBC package, but I have looked over the PDF as well as a few websites that go over the SQL language. I can connect to my database fine using >channel<-odbcConnect("Oracle ODBC") # then am prompted to enter my user id and password After that I'd like to use the odbcQuery function and the SQL statement: SELECT * FROM table_name WHERE SAMPLE_YEA LIKE

I am trying to figure out a way to download an Excel file and then read a range into R - so that i can have a reasonably automated process. I have been trying to use the RODBC package, but with little success. I suspect that this isnt the right route Here is some code. My aim is to read in the data starting in H69:H283 in sheet 2.

Hi, I am trying to query a Sybase database on my new windows 7 machine.

I have compiled and linked a 64 bit version of R (R 2.9.2) and the corresponding unix ODBC 64 bit package The red highlighted text below is the error I'm getting trying to when invoking a sqlQuery > library(RODBC) > channel <- odbcConnect("OraLSH", <user>, <password>) > sqlQuery(channel,"select sysdate from dual") Error in .Call(C_RODBCFetchRows,

Dear all, I have some problems with importing data from an Access data base via RODBC to R. The data base contains several tables, which all are imported consecutively. One table has a column with column name "NO". If I run the code attached on the bottom of the mail I get no complain, but the column name (name of the respective vector of the data.frame) is "Expr1014" instead

I'm trying to load Affy Annotation data from an Access database into R using RODBC. This has worked fine for quite some time. The bug seems to be correlated to RODBC versions 1.1-7 and later. Works fine: R 2.2.0 with RODBC 1.1-4; R 2.3.0 or R 2.4.1 with RODBC 1.1-6 Fails: R 2.3.1 with RDOBC 1.1-7; R 2.4.1 with RODC 1.1-7 or 1.1-8 Details ===== This works fine: Version 2.2.0

1. Can I avoid having RODBC use so much memory (35 times the data size or more) making a data.frame & then .rda file via. sqlQuery/save? 2. If not, is there some more appropriate way from w/in R to pull large data sets (2-5GB) into .rda files from sql? [R] reducing RODBC odbcQuery memory use?

L.S. I am trying to get data from an excel sheet using the RODBC library, quite like the example on page 34 of the 'Data manipulation with R' book written by Phil Spector. It seems very straightforward, yet I get the same error everytime I try it, with different excel sheets and trying to tweek the code a bit. This is what I do: library(RODBC) sheet='X:\\example.xls'

I have searched the archives for using insert into to update spreadsheets using RODBC and have come up short. So, first off, is it possible? I have put together a dummy xls table (c:\foo.xls)for exploring possibilities of RODBC. Ultimately, I am interested in replacing much of our previous use of vba macros with R ( I'd prefer elimination, but will take what I can get ). In order to

Hello, Im trying to get a Oracle database to R, but I'm having problems with most of SQL sintax. Suppose that Im trying to bring a table "TABLE" with columns "COL1","COL2",.. from schema "SCHEMA".
