Dear all, I need to test for the existence of an index on a table. This cannot be done with sqlPrimaryKeys as it is not a primary key. Therefore I select directly from the systemtable of SQL-Server 2000 named sysindexes. This works well with RODBC Version 1.2-5 but not with version 1.3-0. Here is the code of the test example: sink(file = "proto.txt", append = FALSE, type =

I'm trying to load Affy Annotation data from an Access database into R using RODBC. This has worked fine for quite some time. The bug seems to be correlated to RODBC versions 1.1-7 and later. Works fine: R 2.2.0 with RODBC 1.1-4; R 2.3.0 or R 2.4.1 with RODBC 1.1-6 Fails: R 2.3.1 with RDOBC 1.1-7; R 2.4.1 with RODC 1.1-7 or 1.1-8 Details ===== This works fine: Version 2.2.0

I have an MS Access database with one table and one column holding rep(1:10) I use: library(RODBC) channel <- odbcConnect("test") sqlQuery(channel, paste("SELECT col FROM tblTest"), believeNRows=FALSE) and get: 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 12337 What? The above should, of course, read: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 I tried the 'odbcQuery' /

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

Hola a tod en s, Tengo un problema a la hora de conectar una base de datos (*.mdb) de Access a RStudio utilizando windows 64-bit. Con el paquete RODBC utilizo el siguiente script que devuelve el error que indico: mdbConnect <- odbcConnectAccess("C:/Users/database.mdb") Error in odbcConnectAccess("C:/Users/Isa/FPI-AZTI/JUVENA/Databases/MEGASCOPE_JUVENA2014.mdb") :

Dear all, I'm trying to connect to an MSAccess database (ArcGIS personal geodatabase). I keep getting an error about the channel when using sqlQuery(). However, sqlTables() does not complain about the channel and lists all tables in the database. If I try sqlFetch(), then R crashes. I'm happy to hear suggestions on how to solve this. Best regards, Thierry > MDB <-

Dear R-users, I am working with R version 2.10.1 and package RODBC Version: 1.3-2 under windows. Say I have a table "testtable" (in an Access data base) with 3 columns and 1 row that looks like this: X Y Z 0012345 42 42,1 The columns are of these types: X - character, Y - Long Integer, Z - Decimal. I use RODBC to get these data into R: > library(RODBC) >

Calling function "sqlFetch" in library(RODBC) and specifying a character string as 2nd argument, I get an error I don't understand: library(RODBC) channel <- odbcConnect("mydatabase.mdb", case="msaccess") sqlFetch(channel, "mytable") # this works fine tabname <- "mytable"; sqlFetch(channel, tabname) # this gives an error: # Error in

Hi to all. I have a problem to connect to an Excel database using RODBC. Namely, I am using 64-bit R 2.14.0, under Windows 7 and I tried following: library(RODBC) > channel <- odbcConnectExcel("results.xlsx") Error in odbcConnectExcel("results.xlsx") : odbcConnectExcel is only usable with 32-bit Windows # ok this is clear why it doesn't work > channel

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 = "")

I have a large Sweave report that reads data from a database file. Some of the columns are 1-character strings containing only +, - or NA. An example for such a table is shown below, and can be downloaded for easier testing from http://www.menne-biomed.de/uni/test.zip (For security reasons, the file is zipped) table test hp hp1 + a - + library(RODBC) channel =

Dear R-list, I'm queering a M$ Access database with the sqlQuery function from the RODBC library. As I cannot make a working example with a database here is an illustrative example, library(RODBC) mdbConnect<-odbcConnectAccess("S:/data/ ... /databse.mdb") data <- sqlQuery(mdbConnect, "select id, DOB, V1, V2, ..., V1009, V1011, V1013 from someTable") I want

In a mdb table, I have a text field with values of 1, 2, .... When I use rodbc to read it into R, it becomes numeric. Is it a bug or something? Thanks.

Hi, I'm currently having some problem connect .mdb file into R. I've installed the RODBC packages and I do the code this way: channel <- odbcConnectAccess("C:/Users/Documents/XYZ") channel and it gave me this : RODBC Connection 3 Details: case=nochange DBQ=C:\USers\JieYi\Documents\NYP\IPP\GCR Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)} DriverId=25 FIL=MS Access

Hi there, I have seen this post. https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-help/2007-June/133606.html have odbc installed in my machine. Now I have the following message: channel2 <- odbcDriverConnect("test.mdb")Warning messages:1: In odbcDriverConnect("test.mdb") : [RODBC] ERROR: state IM002, code 0, message [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no

Dear all, I have some problems with importing data from an Access data base via RODBC to R. The data base contains several tables, which all are imported consecutively. One table has a column with column name "NO". If I run the code attached on the bottom of the mail I get no complain, but the column name (name of the respective vector of the data.frame) is "Expr1014" instead

Dear Tobias, I finally succeeded in exporting my dataframes from R into Access with this script: library(RODBC) canal <- odbcConnectAccess("D:/Floristique.mdb") sqlSave(channel=canal, dat=flore, tablename="Floristique", rownames=F, safer=F, fast=F, varTypes=c(dates="Date")) odbcClose(canal) My problem in exporting my dataframe "flore" seems to

What is the recommended way of checking whether an RODBC connection is open? Since odbcValidChannel is not exported from namespace RODBC, I suppose I shouldn't be using it. This is the best I could come up with, but it seems a bit 'dirty' to be using a tryCatch for something like this: odbcOpenp <- function(conn) tryCatch({odbcGetInfo(conn);TRUE},error=function(...)FALSE)

I am facing the same problem as well, I would like to code with following concept but wondering how to cope it. if (*mdb file exist) { add new row/col } else { add new *mdb file } ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Uri Shimron <UriShimron_at_optiver.com> Date: Thu 21 Sep 2006 - 13:27:35 GMT First of all,
