similar to: RODBC package -- sqlQuery(channel,.....,nullstring=0)stillgives NA's

There is something strange in R behaviour (perhaps). I have run the same select in Oracle SQL*Plus (version 10.1.0.2.0) and the output comes out with NULLs (which is what it ougth to be). But in R I still get the same result with NAs (no matter I use na.strings or nullstring arguments) An output example follows below: Using na.string="0" and nullstring="0" (sorry by the

R-help, I'm using the RODBC package to retrieve data froma ODBC database which contain NA's. By using the argument nullstring = "0" in sqlQuery() I expect to coerce them to numeric but still get NA's in my select. I'm running on Windows XP > version _ platform i386-pc-mingw32 arch i386 os mingw32 system i386,

Dear All, Writing sooner than I thought I'd need to. I'm using R 2.4 on Mac OS X, with RODBC, PostgreSQL 8.1 and Actual's ODBC driver. I have all my data in Filemaker 8.5, but it is automatically exported into PostgreSQL for analysis as Filemaker's ODBC and JDBC access is awful, slow and has a tendency to crash. I have disability data where for each patient there is a survival

Hello everyone! I'm having the dreaded repeated rows problem in RODBC. Specifically, when I have a NULL value in a column, odbcFetchRows reads the value not as NULL or NA but as the most recent non-NULL value in the column. If there is no such non-NULL column, odbcFetchRows reads the value as 0. Let me give you an example (though you won't be able to run it with the "product"

Dear List, I have a problem with RODBC on a Paradox-DB, sqlQuery, and special characters in table names. Unfortunately, some of the latter include the underscore <_>. And I am not able to change them. That's not a problem, when I quote the table name: > sqlQuery(channel2, 'SELECT * FROM "anmeldung-alt"') Btw, if I swap ' and " it does not work: >

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".

R Version : 2.14.1 x64 Running on Windows 7 Connecting to a database on a remote Microsoft SQL Server 2012 The short form of my problem is the following. I have an unordered vectors of names, say: names<-c("A", "B", "A", "C","C") each of which have an id in a table in my db. I need to convert the names to their corresponding ids. I

Hi R users. sorry for missing example and if question is to general but I am wondering if it is possible to execute subqueries in function sqlQuery (package RODBC) with opened connection with Excel or SQL server 2000. I couldn't find any example of this. And if it is possible what should be a correct syntax for this query: SELECT ct,COUNT(*) as n FROM (SELECT COUNT(*) AS ct FROM children

Hello R users, I would like to use an integer and a date as attributes in sqlQuery, and these arguments are defined in my function. Here is my function: GetReturn<-function(code,date) { channel<-odbcConnect("db","user1","password") ssql<-paste("select * from TABLE Where PF_CODE =",code,"and PF_DATE=",date)

Dear R-list, I'm queering a M$ Access database with the sqlQuery function from the RODBC library. As I cannot make a working example with a database here is an illustrative example, library(RODBC) mdbConnect<-odbcConnectAccess("S:/data/ ... /databse.mdb") data <- sqlQuery(mdbConnect, "select id, DOB, V1, V2, ..., V1009, V1011, V1013 from someTable") I want

Hi R-users, I'm trying to retrieve data from MS SQL database with RODBC's sqlQuery-function: temp <- sqlQuery(channel,"select *, (select text from table1 where koodi='paa' and koodi2=paa) as tempor from table2") str(temp) … $ var0 : num NA NA 1.6 NA NA 1.4 NA 1 NA NA ... $ var1 : Factor w/ 45 levels "

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), but the following command testout

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,

Large for loops are slow. Try to avoid them using apply, sapply, etc. I've made the paste statements a lot shorter by using collapse. See ?paste for more info. Append.SQL <- function(x, channel){ sql="INSERT INTO logger (time, v1, v2, v3, v4, v5, v6, v7, v8, v9, v10) VALUES("d1=strptime(x[2],"%d/%m/%y %H:%M:%S %p '", d1, "' ,", paste(x[3:12],

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
