Thank you for all your answers. I've looked at RODBC but it seems that you have to declare the database with the administration tools before using it . With RMySQL, you can do it directly in the R-script which is very convenient for me as I regularly treat new databases.
For those who already used rtool : - are the administration rights are requested (to install or/and to use it) ? - after the installation, install.packages('RMySQL',type='source') is the only things to do or more skills in computer are needed ? I will have a look at the R-sig-DB list if I can't do it alone. Again thanks for your help and advices.
