using postgresql with R/RODBC
There's only one CRAN RODBC entry under Packages (version 1.1.3). That's the one I used. The 'Depends' line seems to indicate that it should work with any version of R > 1.9. In any case, after I received the reply I went back to CRAN and took a different path (under windows binaries) and located an earlier version of RODBC (1.1.2). When I tried that one I get this error: Error in library(RODBC) : 'RODBC' is not a valid package -- installed < 2.0.0? Aside from the Depends entry and the runtime error message there doesn't seem to be any thing to indicate which version is appropriate for R 2.0.1. BTW, I'm on win 2000, if that would make a difference. On Mon, 14 Mar 2005 16:22:50 +0100, Uwe Ligges

Hi, Please excuse these questions if they're obvious. I'm new to R. I need to access a Postgres db from R. I'm currently trying RODBC as I spend part of my time on Windows and rdbi.pgsql seems not to support windows at this time. I unzipped the RODBC win binary download into my library directory and tried to load it using library(RODBC) I get the following error: Error in dyn.load(x, as.logical(local), as.logical(now)) : unable to load shared library "C:/PROGRA~1/R/rw2001/library/RODBC/libs/RODBC.dll": LoadLibrary failure: The specified procedure could not be found. In addition: Warning message: package 'RODBC' was built under R version 2.1.0
So why don't you use the binary package from CRAN that has been compiled for you under R-2.0.1? Uwe Ligges
Error: .onLoad failed in loadNamespace for 'RODBC' Error in library(RODBC) : package/namespace load failed for 'RODBC' The path correctly points to the dll. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? thanks.
