Hola, Pensé que esto iba a ser trivial en R, pero me estoy encontrado muchos con mi problema en internet, y que las soluciones ofrecidas no terminan de funcionar. Estoy intentando leer un fichero .xls en ubuntu con los siguientes paquetes y nada: require(RODBC) conn = odbcConnectExcel("madrid.xls") # open a connection to the Excel file sqlTables(conn)$TABLE_NAME # show all sheets df =

Gracias Jorge por contestar tan rápido. Con gdata hago eso del path, y directamente con el fichero, lo vi en una web, y he intentado todas las opcioens que he visto. En vez de install.packages('rJava', type = 'source') he hecho install.packages('rJava') Ahora probaré, y lo mismo con scan y readLines. He visto en stackoverflow que mi problema puede ser actualizar java,

library(xlsReadWrite) mydata<-read.xls("file path", header=TRUE) however if I change xls to csv it works just fine. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

Hola, @javier, me gustaría no tener que hacer nada de forma manual, ni por fuera de r, rstudio. Es decir, el típico comando de linux que me convierta de xls a csv prefiero no usarlo. Me gustaría hacerlo todo desde R. @jorge -> Con RODBC me salta -> Error: could not find function "odbcConnectExcel" Lo que creo que es inevitable en Ubuntu

I am using read.xls command from the gdata package. I get the following error when I try to read a work sheet from an excel sheet.

I've suddenly started seeing a consistent problem with read.xls. No matter what xls file I try I always get an error message of this type: Error in xls2sep(xls, sheet, verbose = verbose, ..., method = method, : Intermediate file '/var/folders/cb/vvshkpm90lx_y2n69qlyw4z40000gn/T//RtmpK50r4g/file546a2722.csv' missing!

Hello eveRybody (and probably special regards to Gabor G....), I recently upgraded from R-2.9.2-win32 to R-10.1.0-win32, and I'm using Windows XP Professional 2002 with service pack 3 on a PC with IntelCore Duo CPU@ 3.00 GHz. Last time I used it (some weeks ago, before upgrading), one of my scripts (including the two lines cited below) used to run OK. When I ran it yesterday evening (after

I have attached a file downloaded from database mirWalk. Apparently it is in XLS format (this is the extension of the downloaded file). However, I cannot open it with OpenOffife spreadsheet program and Excel itself cannot separate the columns as it does when a true XLS file is loaded. I tried to read the attached downloaded file through R function "read.xls" and got the following

Hi Using R 2.10.1 on a mac os 10.6.2, I have have a problem with gdata package.

Hello, All: The "writeFindFn2xls" function in the "sos" package tries to write an Excel file with 3 sheets ('PackageSum2', 'findFn', 'call'). Unfortunately, it is often unable to do this because of configuration problems that are not easy to fix. I've found 3 contributed packages that provide facilities to write Excel files with

I can use gdata to successfully read in the example Excel file, but not any other excel files. Why might this be the case?

So i'm at a loss of how to fix it. > library(gdata) gdata: read.xls support for 'XLS' (Excel 97-2004) files ENABLED. gdata: read.xls support

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

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

My installation is R version 2.4.0 on Mac OS X version 10.4.8 (the latest release in both cases). I've recently had to restore my hard drive after a crash, and fear that this may have screwed up my Perl installation slightly. Whenever I run the read.xls function from library(gtools) I get the following errors: ###################### > file =
