The maximum number of rows in excel 2003 or below is 65535, less than your number of rows, so if you export your data into "xls" files, probably you cannot see all your data in excel. Exel 2007 can hold as many as 1048575 lines, thus "xlsx" file is a better choice.

Hi R users:

I don't know if you have had the following problem trying to
export to an "xls" format file in a non windows platform.

I try to use the following packages:
1. dataframes2xls (version 0.4.4) (with phyton 2.7 and 3.1)
2. WriteXLS (version 1.9.0) (with perl and testPerl working)

Even "xlsx" package that take too long and do not finish.

The data frame I try to export has 269363 row and 116 columns.
In the first one (dataframe2xls) I get this message:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File
"C:/PROGRA~2/R/R-211~1.1PA/library/dataframes2xls/python/csv2xls.py",

                                                             ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

Using the second option I get this message:

Error en get(as.character(i)),envr=envir) :
   objeto '00000000089' no encontrado

Object '00000000089' not found.

Im using this R platform:
sessionInfo()
R version 2.11.1 Patched (2010-08-30 r52848)
Platform: x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu (64-bit)

Locale:
LC_CTYPE=es_CO.UTF-8

Is the only solution to export to ".csv" and then
to ".xls" format with other program like openoffice?

Thank you for your help and advice.

Kenneth
