Emiliano, I think you missed my reply - clipboard is even simpler than using external files and I have even provided the AS for this. However, this is not what Christian asked for (please read the whole thread before replying). Cheers, Simon

Hi! maybe my reply will be too foolish... but I'll try anyway! Can't you just use .CSV as an interface format between any spreadsheet software and R? That makes data sharing really very simple by using read.csv and read.csv2 to get the data into R, and then write.csv and write.csv2 to save for the spreadsheet. I imagine you can easily make an Applescript wrapper to make the transition look a lot more like a GUI feature... but then, why on earth would you need to use something like Excel when you are already using R??? anyway, good luck!

Hi, is there something similar to rcom on OSX? I understand that R for OSX has some limited applescript support, but I was wondering if there is an easy way to share data with other applications. My ultimate goal would be to use R together with a spreadsheet as I can currently do on windows with R, rcom and Excel. Thanks Christian Prinoth <cp at epsilonsgr.it> Epsilon SGR +39-02-88102355
