Hello sir:
How can I read data file of EXCEL format from disk("d:\\data.XLS" for example)?
I can only read data file of .txt format
read.delim("d:\\data.txt",header=T,as.is=T),but only EXCEL format is available at present.
Here is one way to read it directly:
library(RODBC)
z <- odbcConnectExcel("d:/data.xls")
mydata <- sqlFetch(z, "Sheet1")
close(z)
# Replace Sheet1 with the name of the worksheet to be read.
