I am running R version 2.8.1 on Windows XP OS. This works fine. (Data.frame dta is created with records from the DB2 table.): sql <- "select * from storage.testappend_slt order by uut" dta <- sqlQuery(channel,sql) But when I try to append records (from data.frame newdta) to the same DB2 table. I get an error: sqlSave(channel, newdta, tablename = storage.testappend_slt, append

I am using R-2.10.1 binary from CRAN on a WinXP Pro system. I also use SAS v9.2 on the same box. I just started using the SAS ODBC driver that comes with version 9 of SAS. I have been able to set up an ODBC source for SAS datasets using the driver, and then with RODBC I am able to read a sample SAS dataset. > library(RODBC) > ch <- odbcConnect('sasodbc', believeNRows=FALSE)

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

Hello! I have no problem reading Excel files (each worksheet in the file is a "table" which can be read - at least in my case). What I would like to do is to read such a table, change it (just the contents, not the format) and write it back, and this I can not do. I am getting the following error messages (3 slightly different attempts): > sqlSave(con, x, tablename =

Hi, I am hoping to use the RODBC package to write a dataframe to an Excel .xlsx file. The dataframe contains at least one field with character elements that exceed 255 bytes, which appears to be the cell width limit in Excel. Below is example code and the warning message received: library(RODBC) d <-

Hello, I created a table in MySQL with this command CREATE TABLE example (pk INT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,PRIMARY KEY(pk), id VARCHAR(30),col1 VARCHAR(30),col2 VARCHAR(30)) ### In R, I can connect to this table: library(DBI) library(RODBC) chan <- odbcConnect("MySQL51", uid="root", pwd="xxx") first <- sqlQuery(chan, "select * from example")

Hi all, I'm using RODBC library to connect to a database. I'm trying to read a table from a database and after manipulating it would like to write to the same database but with a different table P<-data.frame(sqlQuery(myconn,'select? *? from Demographics')) sqlSave(myconn,p,tablename="trial",rownames=FALSE) I'm gettng this error Version:1.0

Hi Michael, Here is the result of my first testing: (0) Dr. Watson Sorry, I should have given a more precise description: by default in R exists a function with the name 'table', if you use this name as in odbcPrimaryKeys(0, table) a Dr. Watson occurs, because table does not give a table name. However, it is always a good idea to prevent Dr. Watsons, even if it is triggered by a

Hello, I am trying to play with RODBC library and Excel Files. In my file (doubs.xls) there are 2 spreadsheets: > library(RODBC) > connection<-odbcConnect("Excel Files") > sqlTables(connection) TABLE_CAT TABLE_SCHEM TABLE_NAME TABLE_TYPE REMARKS 1 F:\\Th?se\\R\\Doubs NA Faune$ SYSTEM TABLE NA 2 F:\\Th?se\\R\\Doubs NA Milieu$

Dear R users, I've learned today about RODBC package in order to import xls file to dataframes and export the dataframes to xls files. However I have some problems. 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

I am reading into Java dput output for a matrix, more specifically for a file backed big-matrix. I basically need to lift dimnames for a matrix from dput output. It's no big deal, but the code is very 'hackish' due to the need to get rid of quotes, endlines, parenthesis, etc. I was wondering if i could manipulate to an extent dput output with some options that define it, for example,

Here is a possible BUG with as.data.frame() and/or [.data.frame which broke Michael Lapsleys RODBC-Code. Can anyone confirm it is a bug or a 'feature' of the prototype? tablename <- "abc" a <- as.data.frame(cbind("abc", 1:3)) b <- as.data.frame(cbind(tablename, 1:3)) # ok > a V1 V2 1 abc 1 2 abc 2 3 abc 3 # missing column name > b tablename 1

Hi, Until now, I thought that the results of glm() and bigglm() would coincide. Probably a naive assumption? Anyways, I've been using bigglm() on some datasets I have available. One of the sets has >15M observations. I have 3 continuous predictors (A, B, C) and a binary outcome (Y). And tried the following: m1 <- bigglm(Y~A+B+C, family=binomial(), data=dataset1, chunksize=10e6)

Dear All, Using RODBC I have read in a (429 x 11) dataframe from Access, and would like to append two columns of transformed data (429 x 2) to the original table (thereby making it a 429 x 13 table). I would ideally like this to be the same name etc as the original table in Access. I have used the following command: R>

I am running R version 2.9.2 on Windows XP OS with RODBC version Version: 1.3-0. Has anyone out there in the R user community successfully appended records to a DB2 table on a remote database using the sqlSave function in the RODBC package? (or by any other means from R?) I posed a similar question a few months ago and unfortunately, did not receive a response. I was hoping recent upgrades to

Hi Thanks much for the prompt response to my earlier enquiry on packages for regression analyses. Along the same topic(?), I have another question about which I could use some input. I am retreiving data from a MySQL database using RODBC. The table has many BLOB columns and each BLOB column has data in the format "id1 \t id2 \t measure \n id3 \t id4 \t measure...." (i.e. multiple rows

Dear R Beginners, Experts and Users, I already asked this question on the R-sig-DB mailing list, but sadly didn't got a reply :-( . Keeping fingers crossed that I have more luck on the main R mailinglist :) . I'm trying to connect to a MySQl database via Gnu R using the RODBC interface. The conenction workes but I get an empty result string. Gnu R and the MySql DB are running on a 64 bit

Hi, I am trying to use sqlSave to write a dataframe to an existing table in a DB2 database. The database contains two schemas. My experience is the following: (1) in the case that tablename is left empty in sqlSave, R writes to the instance level schema (2) in the case that a tablename is specified and that table name exists only once in the database, R will write to that table irrespective

Hi, since bigglm doesn't have update, I was wondering how to achieve something like (similar to the example in ff package manual using biglm): first <- TRUE ffrowapply ({ if (first) { first <- FALSE fit <- bigglm(eqn, as.data.frame(bigdata[i1:i2,,drop=FALSE]), chunksize = 10000, family = binomial()) } else { fit <- update(fit,

Buen dia Javier, muchas gracias por tu ayuda y el script compartido. Me va a servir como ayuda para seguir aprendiendo sobre RODBC pero no encuentro una solucion para este problema puntual de poder definir el tipo y ancho de las variables, q segun creo se hace con el argumento varTypes. Si alguien tien algun ejemplo donde haya usado la SqlSave y VarTypes, me sera de gran ayuda. Abrazo a todos
