Hello David, As I had no time to try to compile the RMySQL package, I finally followed your advice and moved to RODBC. The decision to modify my scripts was taken after I discovered the function odbcDriverConnect which allow to directly connect to database (like RMySQL) without declaring the database through ODBC window.
With the following command, ch<-odbcDriverConnect(connection="SERVER=localhost;DRIVER=MySQL ODBC 5.1 Driver;DATABASE=my_db;UID=my_user;PWD=my_pwd;case=tolower") the connection runs nicely. Thanks again for the link. Happy New Year to all the R-users, Ptit Bleu. -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/looking-for-the-RMySQL-package-for-R-2-12-0-under-XP-tp3057537p3175513.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org 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.
