Perhaps easiest alternative for Excel users: RExcel [1]. I would
suggest to use this bundle installer [2].

When in Excel with RExcel loaded, select your data in Excel and choose
Put R Dataframe.

Re: [R] reading data from Excel Spread sheet

2009-01-17 Thread Gabor Grothendieck
There are many answers to this in R but some considerations are

- what platform are you using?
- do you have access to Excel or only to the spreadsheet itself?  If you
have access to Excel is it on the same machine as R?
- is it an Excel 2003 spreadsheet (.xls) or Excel 2007 spreadsheet (.xlsx)?
- is this a one time transfer of a particular data set or will you be
transferring
numerous similar spreadsheets?
- is the spreadsheet located on your computer or does it have to be fetched
from the internet or some other place?

Re: [R] reading data from Excel Spread sheet

2009-01-16 Thread John Sorkin
Kiran,
One, not very elegant way, to solve your problem is to first save the
Excel spreadsheet as a CSV file (open the Excel file in Excel and the
use file-save as CSV, i.e. xxx.CSV) and then use read.csv()

or maybe by using the xlsReadWrite package:

mydata - read.xls(mydata.xls, sheet = 'Sheet1)
