Thanks Jim, I tried XLConnect but faced with same error.

 options(java.parameters = '-Xmx5g')

 library(XLConnect)
Loading required package: rJava
XLConnect 0.2-5 by Mirai Solutions GmbH
http://www.mirai-solutions.com ,
http://miraisolutions.wordpress.com

 cftc = 
 readWorksheetFromFile(d:\\Krishna\\Research\\CFTC_COT\\cftcdata.xlsx, sheet 
 = 'Sheet1')
Error: OutOfMemoryError (Java): Java heap space

What is the maximum file size to load into R? is there a better way to load 
large excel files to R?

Many thanks for the help.

Regards, 

Krishna

2013-07-22 Thread Jim Holtman
did you try converting xlsx to xls (if possible).  the xlsx format puts a large 
demand on both memory and cpu resources.

This is an error that is coming from you Java installation, not from R. You may 
need to investigate modifying your Java environment variables. This might not 
be the correct mailing list from which to expect advice on Java setup although 
I seem to rememer seeing advice of this sort offered in the past. Have you done 
a search of the Rhelp archives?
