I have spent hours on R in Windows 7.  Just installed 2 days ago so the R
package should be current.



Currently I am using the RGui (64-bit) for Windows.



I can not read an Excel file into R from my computer.  Have hours on this.
 Completely crazy!!



I have the XLConnect package loaded.  I think it is loaded because when I
enter:



> loadedNamespaces()

 [1] "base"          "datasets"      "graphics"      "grDevices"

 [5] "methods"       "rJava"         "stats"         "tools"

 [9] "utils"         "XLConnect"     "XLConnectJars"



XLConnect is listed.  Does that mean it is loaded?



> getwd()

[1] "F:/RwkCB3/R OG SBCD 1205v01"


> list.files()

 [1] "~$ R OG SBCD 1205 MH1.docx"       "~WRL2121.tmp"

 [3] "01 R OG SBCD 1205 MH1 BU1.docx"   "01 R OG SBCD 1205 MH1.docx"

 [5] "01 R OG SBCD 1205v01 BU2"         "Dta1.txt"

 [7] "Gas Dly YTD1204 v01 BU.xlsm"      "Gas Dly YTD1204 v01.xlsm"

 [9] "Oil Dly YTD1204 v01 BU.xlsm"      "Oil Dly YTD1204 v01.xlsm"

[11] "Oil Dly YTD1204 v01.xlsx"         "R OG SBCD 1205v01 sCt.lnk"

[13] "R setwd to C Prog R sCt OtDt.lnk"



So apparently "Oil Dly YTD1204 v01.xlsx" exists in my working directory.



SO WHY DOES THE FOLLOWING BEHAVE THE WAY IT DOES?



> OlPrcFl <- loadWorkbook(“Oil Dly YTD1204 v01.xlsx”, create = FALSE)

Error: unexpected input in "OlPrcFl <- loadWorkbook(“"




I can read an xlsx file in when I do:


> OlPrcFl <- loadWorkbook(file.choose())

That is not a real, long-term solution.


Have same problem installing packages -- Can't get R to load a package when
I specify a path.  Works when I use file.choose()




I would really appreciate it if you could tell me what is going on.



Thanks,
