You can secure data directly from most common relational data sources within R. This is covered in the R Data Import/Export Manual: http://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/R-data.html and is also available with your R installation. There is also a R e-mail list specifically on database interfaces: https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-sig-db HTH, Marc Schwartz ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
