Re: [R] RE xcel - two problems - Running RExcel & Working Directory error
1. The embedded blanks often cause problems. Try the 8.3 version of the filepath. To find the 8.3 name, open an MSDOS cmd window and enter "dir /x 'C:\\Raoul\\R" There will be a line something like RMAPS_~1 R Maps_UK Maps_Test Use the value that appears in the RMAPS_~1 position. 2. try loading rcom at the R prompt before starting RExcel from the Excel window. require(rcom) If that works you will need to modify your Rprofile to make that happen automatically. Further questions on RExcel should be sent to the rcom mailing list rco...@mailman.csd.univie.ac.at If you need further help, please include the information from RExcel: In Excel, click on RExcel > About RExcel > Copy to Clipboard > OK Then move to your email and paste that information.

[R] RE xcel - two problems - Running RExcel & Working Directory error
Hi,
I am using RExcel both at work and at home and am facing a couple of
challenges. The one at home is that when using RExcel and trying to run any
code that involves changing the working directory, I get the following
error.
Error in command:
setwd("C:\\Raoul\\R\\R Maps_UK Maps_Test\\NUTS_03M_2006_SH\\shape\\data")\n
cannot change working directory
The one at office is more complicated, I have had R,RExcel & the DCOM
package installed and re-installed numerous times but still get the error
"there is no R server connected to Excel" and when I try to set the server
it does not work.
Could someone please help me out with these problems?
Thanks in advance,
Raoul
