1. sqldf takes one sql argument whereas the above has two sql arguments; however, the one argument may be a vector of sql commands. See ?sqldf and the examples on the sqldf home page http://sqldf.googlecode.com 2. there is an error in the syntax of your update statement. For correct syntax see the sqlite site: http://sqlite.org/lang_update.html -- Statistics & Software Consulting GKX Group, GKX Associates Inc. tel: 1-877-GKX-GROUP email: ggrothendieck at gmail.com ______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
