Hello,

I am a new user of R, and I am not able to read/scan external files. I am
working in a Linux environment. I have read through the R FAQ and documents
and have not been successful using the recommendations. Below are several
scripts I've used and the error messages. .


I've cc'd Brandon Whitcher because it was recommended in another FAQ.   I
read that this is a bug that occurs on Windows.   Is there is a patch/fix
that I can use?  I'd appreciate any help with this problem.

Thnx,
Barbara Chisolm

Test2 <- scan("C:\\bac\\TestData2")
Error in file(file, "r") : cannot open file `C:\bac\TestData2

You told us you are on Linux, but C:\bac\TestData2 does look like a Windows environment!


test1<-read.table('J:/bac/R/TestDataWord.txt')

Error in file(file, "r") : cannot open file `J:/bac/R/TestDataWord.txt'

setwd("J:/bac/R/")

Error in setwd(dir) : cannot change working directory

If all these files / paths do exist: Which version of R / Windows are you using?
