[R] R2wd- how to open an existing document

2010-07-06 Thread Felipe Carrillo
Hi:
How can one open an existing word document with wdGet()
I am getting an error message when trying to open it like this: 
wdGet(filename=myDoc.doc,path=c/mydata)
Looking at Tal Galili's website example it appears that double backslashes
are used but i tried it and didn't work either. Thanks

Having no clue about the specifics here, but what about:

wdGet(filename = myDoc.doc, path = c:/mydata)

You are leaving out what didn't work means.

What error are you receiving?

Hi:
I am doing exactly that but I still get the following error message:

Error in if (!(tmp[[ActiveDocument]][[Name]] == filename)) 
tmp$Open(paste(path,  : 

  argument is of length zero
