Reading microsoft .xls format and openoffice OpenDocument files
From: Ajay Shah
1: Why not try the XLSReadWrite package that can do it
natively without
using Perl to convert to CSV first?
I looked at the package (it's http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/xlsReadWrite/index.html) but it's windows only. So no joy yet.
2: There seems to be an Ooo extension that sounds similar to R-Excel (connecting R to Calc). Not sure if that helps you any though.
I wasn't able to locate this. Could you please describe this further?
See http://extensions.services.openoffice.org/project/R4Calc. Looks hot out of the oven. I happened to see it when browsing through the list of Ooo extensions while waiting for Ooo 2.3.1 to download last night. Andy
