similar to: AW: Passing dynamic sql statement to RODBC functions

Hi, Does anyone know how to pass dynamic sql statement to RODBC function "odbcQuery()" or "sqlQuery()"? eg.: under R session, I did: >library(RODBC) >channel<-odbcConnect(...) >data1<-2.5 >data2<-5.0 I want to construct the INSERT sql statement using variables "data1" and "data2" and pass this statement to odbcQuery() . Can I do this?

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?

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

I have compiled and linked a 64 bit version of R (R 2.9.2) and the corresponding unix ODBC 64 bit package When issuing a SqlQuery, I get the following error > library(RODBC) > channel <- odbcConnect("OraLSH", <user>, <password>) > sqlQuery(channel,"select sysdate from dual") Error in .Call(C_RODBCFetchRows, attr(channel, "handle_ptr"), max,

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

I have an MS Access database with one table and one column holding rep(1:10) I use: library(RODBC) channel <- odbcConnect("test") sqlQuery(channel, paste("SELECT col FROM tblTest"), believeNRows=FALSE) and get: 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 12337 What? The above should, of course, read: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 I tried the 'odbcQuery' /

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

Dear r-helpers! I have trouble reading data from an Oracle data base using RODBC Version 1.0-3, R Version 1.7.1, Windows XP, Oracle8 ODBC Driver Version 8.1.6.4.0: > library(RODBC) > channel <- odbcConnect(dsn="PAV32", case="oracle", believeNRows=FALSE) > # ok, this was succesful > x <- sqlTables(channel) > x[37, ] TABLE_CAT TABLE_SCHEM TABLE_NAME

Hi everyone, In relation to the RODBC odbcClose bug which was fixed back in the changelog below: Version: 1.2-3 (2008-01-24, released) * Plug a memory leak in inRODBCClose (closing a connection), reported by Stephan Henne. * Use translateChar() on character data sent in. Background: I am running some data from a SQL Server database, through unixODBC (freetds) into R via the RODBC

Hi, I've written some code that fetches data from an Access Database (2003), processes the data, then saves the modified data back into a table in the Access database. It works if I only pass through the code once, but if I put a loop around the code so that I fetch data from a different source table, and then save it again to a different destination table, the code crashes. It is

Hey everyone, I don't have a question. Instead some helpful advice with things I've learned from trying to connect 'R' to databases using RODBC. ROBDC is a very handy tool that, once you have everything fixed up nicely, is a great way to have scripts run fairly autonomously, safe in the knowledge that data isn't accidentally messed up. But I was fairly ignorant

Hello Experts, how can I use variables in the RODBC environment. Example which does not work: Thanks for your help. Thorsten pn <- '39R5238'; library(RODBC); odbcobj <- odbcConnect("SQUIT21C",uid="muehge",pwd="xxx"); sql <- "select u.unitid, from test where part in ('pn') "; parameter <- sqlQuery(odbcobj,sql);

Hello, I am new to R progaming and have just started using this program since last week. What i want to achieve is to use R to determine patterns in sales/ customer complaint etc. information located in a mysql database. I am not sure how to approach this or which technique i should use to do so. However, i had proceeded to add a dataset to RStudio using the following code: library(RODBC) 

Dear list, RODBC is mostly working very well on Windows XP talking to MS SQL Server. However, when trying to retrieve a result set in repeated batches the first batch returns results ok, but then subsequent calls return no data (see code below). I tried setting believeNRows=FALSE both in odbcConnect() and in sqlGetResults() but this doesn't appear to make any difference. Also odbcFetchRows()

Howdy, I'm trying to use R to access Oracle 8i using the RODBC package On Linux Red Hat 7.3. Specs R version 1.51 Driver: Easysoft ODBC - Oracle driver Driver Manager: unixODBC I get the following error when trying to executing RODBC commands. Can anybody give me pointers as to what I'm missing or doing wrong > library(RODBC) > channel <- ("DSNName") >

Hi everyone, I am desperately looking for a method to interpolate strings within an SQL statement as follows: I get a lot of rows out of a database (in my example POSITION_to_ZIPCODE Database with holds records for German ZIP Code <--> Gauss-Krueger Coordinate System ) and want this to be selected and computed individually row by row as follows: library(RODBC) channel <-

I have found that the "schema.table" syntax used in Postgresql (and Oracle) does not work directly with RODBC. This works library(RODBC) con<-odbcConnect("mydb") d<-sqlQuery(con,"select * from meso.trees") However this does not. d<-sqlFetch(con,"meso.trees") Error in odbcTableExists(channel, sqtable) : ?meso.trees?: table not found on channel
