Hi Laura

Pretty common question. You could find an answer going through
archives.
To copy to Excel through clipboard:

write.excel<-function(tab, ...) write.table( tab, "clipboard",
sep="\t", row.names=F)

write.excel(your.data.frame)

open Excel and press ctrl-C

Well, that is essentially

`writing to a regular data file and importing into Excel',

it just stores the data file on the clipboard.

Another way is to use RDCOM and Rexcel and drive this from Excel. But that needs additional software installed.


Cheers Petr

Hi R!

Is there a special function that writes data to an Excel file, please?

I found read.spss and so on in the foreign library, but nothing to
write.

Of course, writing to a regular data file and importing into Excel
works fine, but I thought that there might be another way.

Thanks in advance.

Sincerely,
Laura Holt
