Simple Answer: You can start Rcmdr from Excel in a way it keeps all its menus and buttons on its own window.
RExcel -> RCommander -> with separate menus does that. (You have to use RExcel -> Start R) to get the RCommander submenu. More complex answer: Do you know that when you right click in a cell in Excel, you can immediately transfer a dataframe between Excel and R in both directions? So to edit a dataframe: create a new worksheet, right click in the upper left cell, Use Get Dataframe, change what you want to change press ctrl-shft-return (selecting the whole dataframe) rightclick and use Put Dataframe There is no need at all to use .csv when transferring data between R and Excel. In fact that is one of the reasons I wrote RExcel! Please have a look at the demo workbooks in RExcel, especially the one aboout Data transfer. -- Erich Neuwirth, University of Vienna Faculty of Computer Science Computer Supported Didactics Working Group Visit our SunSITE at http://sunsite.univie.ac.at Phone: +43-1-4277-39464 Fax: +43-1-4277-39459 _______________________________________________ R-SIG-GUI mailing list R-SIG-GUI@stat.math.ethz.ch https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-sig-gui
