[R] Fetch large sized file from SQL

2009-10-02 Thread Dr. Alireza Zolfaghari
Hi List,
Does any one know what package I need to use in order to fetch/get a large
sized dataframe from SQL? I have already used sqldf package which is good
for fetching large sized csv files.

Thanks
Alireza

You can try using RODBC, it allows you to connect to databases using the ODBC 
driver. 

I had some difficulties using it with the postgresSQL driver in the past, 
because of some apparent incompatibility with the native postrgesSQL ODBC 
driver. I think the problem where solved by the new ODBC driver for 
postgresSQL and the new revision for RODBC.

But the problem is that the dataframe size in sql is large, therefore odbc
can sqlQuery() can not handel it.

I think you can specify the number of rows to be loaded at a time.  It was 
quite a while ago. Try reading

?sqlQuery
?odbcConnect

I have loaded quite large tables.
