Hi all, Apologies if I violate any posting etiquette - this is my first submission to the R mailing list. I regularly use 'odbcConnectExcel2007' (from package 'RODBC') to read data from named ranges in excel workbooks into R. I recently received the following error message when attempting to set up a connection channel (i.e. ch1 <- odbcConnectExcel2007('path to excel 2007

I tried creating a .xlsx file using odbcConnectExcel2007 and adding a worksheet with sqlSave. This seems to work, I am even able to query the worksheet, but when I try opening the file in Excel I get the following message: "Excel cannot open the file 'test.xlx' because the file format or file extension is not valid. Verify that the file has not been corrupted and that the file

Apologies if this is already answered elsewhere, but I could not find the answer searching the archives. I am trying to bring my data in from an .xlsx file. The data of interest is an n x m array, but it is preceded with ~2 columns and 30 rows of instrumental "information." An abbreviated example (cols denoted with "," for this example: Subject , 01 wavelength, 400 (30

I have probably an old question. I have R.3.0.1 installed in 64 bit windows 7. The odbcConnectExcel in RODBC library does not work. Tried odbcConnectExcel2007 still does not work. Any ideas. Thanks Melissa<-sqlFetch(odbcConnectExcel2007("F:\\Cotton2012\\validation.xlsx"),sqtable = "Sheet3", + na.strings = "NA", as.is = TRUE) Error in

Hi all, I am not exactly fluent in R and I got stuck with this. I would like to compare each elements of a vector A with any of the elements in Vector B. For some reasons it does not work. > StartDate = as.Date("01/10/2007", "%d/%m/%Y") > TimeSpan = seq(StartDate, by = 'days', length = length(myAverageCWVs$X1986)) > TickLabels = c("2007-10-01",

Hola amigos, buenos días Esto sigue avanzando. Estoy ahora tratando de establecer la conectividad de R con Excel y he seguido dos viídeos en YouTube de una profesora llamada Bebilda que se explica muy bien. Con ambos tengo el mismo problema así que planteo uno de ellos, éste es: https://youtu.be/_pSJQO_9I4k?list=PL7DA3FDA21A1A6310 Pero os lo explico brevemente: Cargo el paquete RODBC >

Hi, I am trying to connect to an Excel2010 file while another user is entering data. (Obviously it would be better to set up a SQL database, but this is not an option at this point.). Typically we are not working on the same sheets. However, if possible I like to read the most current excel file into R. RODBC works great as long as the other user has not open the file. I tried: channel <-

I am reading dates in Excel2007 into R. Here are the functions I used: library(RODBC) channel<-odbcConnectExcel2007("myfile.xlsx") tmp<-sqlFetch(channel,"1",as.is=T) The dates in myfile.xlsx are all in this format: mm/dd/yyyy. But when I read it to R, some columns look like "yyyy-mm-dd 00:00:00", some columns look like "yyyy-mm-dd", and some

Hi one col in my Excel file contains many numbers. But on line 3000 and some other lines are strings like "FG 1". "RODBS" seems to omit this lines. "gdata" works, but is much slower. Is this a bug of RODBC or do I apply it wrong? Example with the same "file.xlsx" library(RODBC); excel <- odbcConnectExcel2007("file.xlsx") tab <-

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 <-

Hi List, just to know if the issue is only a problem of mine or if it is a general issue due to the new MS Office pack. I'm using R 2.11.1 32 bits in a Windows 7 x64 with the MS office 2010 x64 installed. I can import .xls files normally (the same way I did with my Excel 2007 32 bits). But the function odbcConnectExcel2007 isn't able to import .xlsx files now that I have the new version of

Hi there, I've got a database or rather spreadsheet with several columns and rows. For one column named sites I want to loop through all possible values and retrieve all data out of the database where site = x and write it into an object named 'sitex_data'. Somehow I'm really missing something as I'm not able to create these sitex_data objects with the database values,

Apologies if this issue has already been addressed. But it isn't plain, even using sshd -d -d -d, why function allowed_user would return 0. In my case, an old version of login was ignoring the expiry-date field of /etc/shadow, but sshd was refusing access. There are several reasons why access might be refused, and it shouldn't be necessary to modify auth.c to print out the info - it

Hi Everyone, I am trying to install RODBC but I get the following error message Error in library.dynam(lib, package, package.lib) : shared library 'RODBC' not found In addition: Warning message: package 'RODBC' was built under R version 2.12.0 Error: package/namespace load failed for 'RODBC' I am using R 2.11.0 and I see that the package was built with 2.12.0.

Dear all, I have been looking for possibilities to read and write Excel 2007-files in and from R. The 'reading' part is ok through odbcConnectExcel2007 and sqlFetch(RODBC). For 'writing' I thought of using sqlSave in the same package, but it does not work (I think because this function starts from an existing file). Is there a workaround for this, or are there other plausible

Hi all, I have imported xlsx file (Excel 2007) into R using the following scripts. *library(RODBC) * *setwd(".......") * *query <- odbcConnectExcel2007(xls.file = "GI 2010.xlsx", readOnly = TRUE) dat <- sqlQuery(query, "select * from [sheet1$]", as.is = TRUE, na.strings = "exp")* *dat* contain one column consisting of intergers and characters

Hi list, By the entire last 2 weeks I was looking for a way to directly import xlsx files to R in a Linux OS (Ubuntu 9.04). I already read the R Import/Export guide, and I know how to use gdata to import xls files and read.table to import .csv. My problem is that all data that I receive is in the xlsx format, and I have to convert all the files to xls. Well, when I was using Windows Vista OS,

I'd like to be able to read multiple sheets from an excel workbook and use the sheet name to name the resulting dataframe using RODBC. at the moment i've figured out how to do it the long way (see below) but feel sure that there is a speedier & possibly automatic way to do it in R. i've tried to run a loop using sqlTables but it seemed to break the connection. unless i've

Hi to all. I have a problem to connect to an Excel database using RODBC.
