Hi, I am running the RODBC examples form the help guide. I am trying to UPDATE a table in an Access data base but I am having an error. library(RODBC) library(termstrc) path = getwd() setwd(getwd()) dbName = "data.mdb" pathdbname = paste(path,"/",dbName,sep="") accesChannel = odbcConnectAccess(pathdbname, uid = "", pwd = "")

Hi. I attempted to use RODBC and decided to execute all the tests provided in "Test.r" under the unpacked package RODBC folder. Beginning with the following: library(RODBC) library(MASS) USArrests[1,2] <- NA hills <- hills[1:15,] row.names(hills)[12] <- "Dollar ('$')" set.seed(1) # MySQL ## testdb3 is ODBC/Connector 3.51.x, testdb5 is 5.1.x channel <-

Hi, I'm able to establish a successful odbc connection using RODBC 1.3-2 on Win 7 and R 2.12.0. But I'm getting the following error message when I try to save a data frame into the debase as shown below. library(RODBC) bbdb <- odbcConnect("bbdb") odbcGetInfo(bbdb) # returns ok sqlSave(bbdb, USArrests, rownames = "state", addPK=TRUE) # example from the RODBC manual

All, I am new in R. I found sqlSave() doesn't work for our Oracle9i. The following was the message: > sqlSave(channel, USArrests, rownames="state") Error in sqlColumns(channel, tablename) : USArrests : table not found on channel Check case parameter in odbcConnect > sqlQuery() works OK. Please help. Thanks. -MY

Dear list, Being new to both the postgres database, ODBC and the RODBC interface, I am somewhat confused by some of the problems I am experiencing trying to connect R to the database. Whai I am trying is basically the example part of the help file for the sqlSave function: > library(RODBC) > odbcConnect("theodor") -> channel > data(USArrests) > sqlSave(channel,

I have a Postgres database that I am connecting to with the Postgres ODBC driver on Windows XP in R 2.1.0. In the database is a database with two schemas (public and X). With RODBC (1.1-4) , I can connect to the database and get the tables with sqlTables(db). I can query tables in the schema with sqlQuery("SELECT * FROM X.test"). However, I can't get the columns in table X.test

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 I am running R2.15.2 64-bit on Windows 7, using RODBC 1.3-6, MySQL5.5.20, MySQL Connector 5.5.2 - these are the latest 64-bit versions AFAIK. sqlQuery and sqlSave work fin as expected, but in a long session with a few sqlSave() calls, I get an error, for example: Error in sqlSave(channel = channel, dat = USArrests[, 1, drop = FALSE], : HY000 1461 [MySQL][ODBC 5.2(w)

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

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$

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

Dear Prof. Ripley et al., I have a data frame with some variable names that contain the underscore character ('_'). It seems that RODBC is not converting them to a suitable variable name for MySQL. > sqlSave(channel, zz, addPK = TRUE, verbose = TRUE) Query: CREATE TABLE zz (rownames varchar(255) PRIMARY KEY, NAME varchar(255), ID varchar(255), GROUP varchar(255), OAC_RT double,

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

I can create a temp table with MySQL and R DBI[1], but I don't see how to do the same with Microsoft SQL 2005 and RODBC. R 2.8.1 creates the table, but then it can never see it. I'm looking to avoid replacing the convenience functions like sqlSave(). [1] https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-help/2009-March/190033.html > library(RODBC) > channel <-

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

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,

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, I've got a problem with RODBC and saving (sqlSave) of a dataframe in Access. R 2.0.1 is running on windows XP. When executing the examples in R help for the "USArrests" data set "sqlSAve" works fine, but running sqlSave() for a dataframe "Adat" > str(Adat) `data.frame': 1202 obs. of 18 variables: containing 18 columns and ca. 1200 rows fails.

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 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
