Peter,

Interesting. Never heard of copying from the clipboard. I am also on a
MacBook Pro, but I cannot get it to work. 

1. I selected the column of data (including the header) in Excel.

2. Selected Edit->Copy.

3. In R, tried:

> a <- read.delim("clipboard")
Error in file(file, "rt") : cannot open the connection
In addition: Warning message:
In file(file, "rt") : clipboard cannot be opened or contains no text

4. I checked the clipboard. The data is there.

What am I missing?

D.
