Hi, I need to read an Excel file which can be available in following link: http://www45.zippyshare.com/v/43626889/file.html
Now I wanted to read the 1st sheet of this Excel file. Below are my code so far (I saved that file in 'F:' drive): > library(XLConnect) Loading required package: rJava XLConnect 0.2-5 by Mirai Solutions GmbH http://www.mirai-solutions.com , http://miraisolutions.wordpress.com > readWorksheetFromFile("f:/Dat1.xlsx", sheet = 1) Col1 Col2 Col3 Col4 1 <NA> NA 2013-05-01 <NA> 2 <NA> NA <NA> <NA> 3 1930-01-01 NA <NA> <NA> 4 <NA> 3127312736128730 <NA> <NA> 5 <NA> NA <NA> <NA> 6 <NA> NA <NA> SAsSag What I saw that, the element in A1 cell is missing. Also the data in C1 & A4 are read in different format. In Excel file, it is Month-Year format, however what I see is Year-Month-Day format. I have many such files, therefore I do not want to convert them to csv (or any other). Doing so will be cumbersome. Can somebody here help me how to read that file in proper format? Thanks for your time. ______________________________________________ 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.
