similar to: RODBC problem: sqlSave not working after an update

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

I have an existing table, and I am trying to use sqlSave to append additional rows to this database. I omit the primary key, which is a uniqueidentifier type (MS SQL), so that the database can populate that field. However, I get the following error: > sqlSave( ch, result, tablename=thetablename, append=TRUE, rownames=FALSE, colnames=FALSE ) Error in odbcUpdate(channel, query, mydata,

Hello, I contact you after having unsuccessfully asked my question to R mailing list. I use the package RODBC to connect to a MS-SQL server. I am able to getQuery from the database. I am now studying the sqlSave some data into the database. Unfortunetly, I meet some issues relating to the format of the data that arrives into the database. I have three columns. The first one should be in the

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

Till yesterday I was more than satisfied by RODBC, specifically by sqlSave which I had been happily using in a daily crontab R batch job regularly updating a postgresql db for as long as one year. In this R- batch I was able to save records into indexed tables *** even though *** they already existed. in this case sqlSave simply neglected those rows of the input table that were offending the

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

Hello, After a (bad) first try some months ago, I'm trying again to use RODBC package instead of DBI+RMySQL packages to populate MySQL database. The main command is sqlSave(channel, data_df, tablename, append=T, rownames=FALSE, colnames=FALSE, fast=FALSE, varTypes=vartypes) where data_df is the data.frame I want to save and vartypes is obtained following the tip given here

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

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

I am running R version 2.8.1 on Windows XP OS. recs is a one-row, eighteen-column data.frame I want to insert into a DB2 table. sqlSave(channel, recs, tablename = "testappend_slt", append = TRUE, + rownames = FALSE, colnames = FALSE, + verbose = TRUE, oldstyle = FALSE, + safer = TRUE, addPK = FALSE, + fast = FALSE, test = FALSE, nastring = NULL) Query:

Hola Javier, si no estoy entendiendo mal, lo q deseo hacer no se trata de configurar los parametros SQL, sino solo de colocar un vector en el argumento VarTypes de la funcion sqlSave. El manual especifica esa opcion, pero no da ningun ejemplo de como usarla. *varTypes an optional named character vector giving the DBMSs datatypes to be used for* *some (or all) of the columns if a table is to be

Hi Everyone, I'm so confused. I've been trying to save data to a table but I keep getting an error that says the table does not exist and at other times saying that it does. So here are some statements: > sqlQuery(channel, "select top 1 * from > TestDB.[SILICON\\holouis1].clep_tier_shift") State NB Change_Number 1 IL 2005-02-08 7 It exists and I

Dear R users, I've already asked this question yesterday, but, though I had answer for the other ones (and they helped a lot, thanks), for some reason didn't get an answer for this one (I would also appreciate to know why, so that I can improve the quality and clarity of my future questions). Here it is again: I'm trying to use RODBC to export dataframes to xls files. When I run

All, I am new in R. I found sqlSave() doesn't work for our Oracle9i.

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 <-

Dear R users, I have a follow-up question on sqlSave(). Since most of the output from the tests I use are lists, I would like to loop to export each element of the list and append it to the sheet. Here is what I do: > library(RODBC) > test <- structure(list(m = structure(c(0.090909090909091, 0.181818181818182, 0.272727272727273, 0.363636363636364, 0.454545454545455,

Hello, the sqlSave function is used in order to write a dataframe on excel. This function creates worksheets using the attribute tablename and writes the data.frame in it. What I want to do is to create this data.frame but being able in case this worksheet already exists to delete the former datas and write the new ones in it. I used the safer and append attributes. When you set safer to false,

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")
