similar to: Excel *.xls files, RODBC

I have Excel files containing data that I would like to move to R. They are in the standard form of a one row header followed by rows of data, one record per row EXCEPT that there are a few rows of comments before the header. The number of rows of comments varies. For Excel files of this form without comments I have had success with: require(RODBC) z <-

I have some questions about the RODBC package. library(RODBC) # required for those who want to repeat these lines 1st, I noticed that the following sequence does not work: channel <- odbcConnextExcel("test.xls") tables <- sqlTables(channel) name1 <- tables[1, "TABLE_NAME"] # this should be the name plan1 <- sqlFetch(channel, name1) # bang!

Please excuse me if these are basic but as I said, I've just begun with this package. Also this email is quite long, but everything is related, so I don't think it would be better to split it. Moreover, there's a

Hello, All: The "writeFindFn2xls" function in the "sos" package tries to write an Excel file with 3 sheets ('PackageSum2', 'findFn', 'call'). Unfortunately, it is often unable to do this because of configuration problems that are not easy to fix. I've found 3 contributed packages that provide facilities to write Excel files with

Hi, i'm trying to read some data from excel files but it seems that neither xlsReadWrite nor sqlFetch (RODBC) doesn't like the format (Excel 5.0). When i open the file in Excel and save it in a new format Excel 97 -2003 everything works fine. Is it possible to use ODBC connection to open old format files, or i guess i will have to open and save every file in Excel in new format, which

Gracias Jorge por contestar tan rápido. Con gdata hago eso del path, y directamente con el fichero, lo vi en una web, y he intentado todas las opcioens que he visto.

He visto en stackoverflow que mi problema puede ser actualizar java,
