The middle section of this mail also includes the content of my Rscript. The bottom part shows the error message form the R console. It seems that Excel is opening the R console without any problems. The problem I am seeing is that Rinterface.RRun instruction is interpreting the "\T" part of the path as an R command. It does not recognize the "X:\Trading\Energy\JorgeSpace\TMPholder\cpixe\home models\" as a one single string, or path. Any ideas how can I fix the problem?
