Dear UseRs, I have an update ready for the xlsReadWrite package. It runs my unit tests just fine but there are quite a lot of changes and it would be good if some other people could try it out before it will be submited to CRAN. I won't have more time this week, but I hope to publish xlsReadWrite at the end of next week and I will incorporate eventual bugreports and/or (minor) suggestions

Dear all, I often use dates and times in analyses. I just can't figure out how to format my date or time column in R. So, apparently R sees the date as something other than date (character). Let's say I am opening a CSV file, one of the columns of which is a date or time. How do I specify that when opening the file? Thanks for the help, Jim --

It's wrapped up in two packages: either "xlsReadWrite" (open source) or the slightly beefed-up "xlsReadWritePro" (shareware). Working with Excel data is now as easy as writing read.xls and write.xls.

Hi all, There have been quite a few threads in the recent months pertaining to the ability to directly write native Excel (.xls) files from R. For example, exporting R matrices and/or data frames to an Excel file, with perhaps the ability to create multiple tabs (worksheets) within a single file, with one tab/sheet per R object. There exists the xlsReadWrite package on CRAN by Hans-Peter Suter,

Argh, just now I saw a scrambled start-up message when running xlsReadWrite1.5.2 in R2.12.0 (32-bit) on a Win7 64-bit platform. If you have this situation and use xlsReadWrite 1.5.2 (probably all earlier versions also) you can download a quick fix, see below. I don't know if this also affects Vista/XP 64 bit. - Probably on the weekend I'll have time to release a proper new 1.5.3 version.

Dear all, i use the following package/syntax to export data to excel: library(xlsReadWrite) write.xls( exportdata,pfad,colNames = TRUE,sheet = 1,from = 1,rowNames = FALSE ) Everything is fine, but the format of the export is not the best.
