Hi, I'm trying to use the excel.link package to write data to excel spreadsheets. I've installed the RDCOMClient package as required but get the error: package 'RDCOMClient' is not installed for 'arch=x64' I'm on Rx64 2.13.0.

Dear list members, I'm using R in connection with the RDCOMClient and Excel. The more I use the package, the more I'm fascinated of it. The possibilities of R can be brought together with the necessities of outputing my socio-economical research results in MS Office! But I have some special questions concering the use of RDCOMClient and perhaps you can help me solving them: 1. Problems

Dear R-list subscriber, is it possible that the omegahat-site is down? I was looking for package 'RDCOMClient', but could not establish a connection. In case somebody has the latest binary zip-file for Windows, would she/he mind to send it directly to my emaim adress stated in the signature? Many thanks, and sorry for bothering/misusing R-help in this instance. Best, Bernhard Dr.

Dear list member, I am using the packages RDCOMClient and SWinTypeLibs and try to import a COM object (created in Delphi) in R that is of type 'early binding' instead of late 'late binding'. Is there a possibility to do this in R? Currently, the following returns an error message: l1 = LoadTypeLib("c:\\Programme\\INVESCO\\QaCalendar\\Calendar.dll")

I am having trouble using the R2wd package. The last time I used it successfully, I was running an earlier version of R and an earlier version of Word with an earlier Windows OS. I'm not sure which if any of these changes might be contributing to the problem. Right now I'm using R version 2.15.0 (2012-03-30) for Windows MS Word 2010 version 14.0.6112.5000 (32-bit)

Hi R-users! I'm trying to create an easy Excel chart using the package RDCOMClient. The following example is working fine: #------------------------------------------------------------------- library(RDCOMClient) xlLocationAsObject <-2 xlXYScatterSmoothNoMarkers <- 73 ex <- COMCreate("Excel.Application") wb <- ex[["Workbooks"]]$Add() sh <-

Hi, This may be due to several reasons. That I can think about: 1) Ensure you close *all* possibly open workbooks: nBooks <- xl[["Workbooks"]]$Count(); for (i in seq_len(nBooks)) xl[["Workbooks"]]$item(i)$Close(SaveChanges=FALSE); 2) The excel application reference does not seem to be really released until the garbage collector runs. So this may help: xl$Quit();

Any way round it??? Best regards, Costas ---------------------------------- Costas Vorlow

Dear R Users, Tried to install RBloomberg with R-2.12.0 and appears RDComclient has not been built for this version of R, so failed. I then tried to get RBloombergs' Java API version to work, but ran into problems with RJava which does not appear to exist for Windows. My platform is Windows XP SP3. Will RDcomclient be built for R-2.12.0 anytime soon ? Does a version of RBloomberh with a

I wrote a procedure to create a spreadsheet using rdcomclient. It uses a function to do the writing and runs "correctly" in isolation. It gives errors, but it continues to completion. The error I receive is "Error: Member not found". If I place it inside a for loop the loop fails after the first iteration, once it reaches the error. Has anyone had experience with this

Has anyone managed to get this working? Here's what I did: I got the binary build for R2.0.1 from the Omegahat download page, and made a small change to the registerClassID function ( to make it use the right path to RDCOMServer.dll). Then I tried to replicate the simple TTest example from the same web site. The COM class definition and registration worked fine for me. To test this, I
