As a follow up to this, Martin Maechler suggested that I write a small script that allows this to be tested on Windows from R. The attached script demonstrates creating and mounting a very small (4 MiB) VHD to a path on the system (in this case c:/smallmount) and then calling write.csv with a la

Hi Duncan, I'm guessing I'll be able to look at this over the weekend/next week (probably closer to next week). It is on my list of things to do and I've just had a few other prior commitments that I have to finish first. Sorry for the delay. I'll chime in with a status update next week. Natha
