[FORGED] Re: output

Hi Val,

<SNIP>

Alternatively, there are other Excel file I/O packages available on
CRAN if you would prefer to consider other options as well. They will
typically require Java being installed, rather than Perl, as I and
Greg do.

The read_excel() function from the "readxl" package has an argument 
"sheet" which should facilitate what Val wants to do.

In my experience the read_excel() function (which is, as you indicate, 
Java rather than Perl based) is quite a bit faster than the Perl based 
alternatives.

cheers,
