2006/10/29, Wensui Liu <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
Andy,
First of all, thanks for your solution.
When I test your code, it doesn't work. I am not sure if I miss something.
Here is the code I tested:
flist<-list.files(path = file.path(, "c:\\"),pattern="[.]csv$")
First of all, I think the command should be as follows:
flist<-list.files(path = file.path("c:\\"),pattern="[.]csv$")
csvlist<-lapply(flist, read.csv, header = TRUE)
Here is the error:
Error in file(file, "r") : unable to open connection
In addition: Warning message:
cannot open file 'test1.csv', reason 'No such file or directory'
Maybe your should reset working directory. the flist is the relative
path so you should set the directory where the data files are (I guess
is "c://" in your case) as working directory.
setwd("c://")
csvlist<-lapply(flist, read.csv, header = TRUE)
Thank you so much!
