[R] Rcmdr GUI goes into loop via alt+backspace under Windows OS

I'm using Rcmdr version 1.4-10 with R version 2.9.0 under Vista x64. A standard editing convention under Windows is that alt+backspace is a keyboard shortcut for undo. I often find myself hitting the [alt] and [backspace] keys while editing scripts in Rcmdr. However, this causes the Rcmdr GUI

Re: [R] RODBC results from stored procedure

Thanks Dieter. The date argument isn't a problem. When I invoke the stored proc execution with the date arguments the stored proc runs fine, but RODBC doesn't wait for the stored proc to finish and return results. Regards, Andrew Dieter Menne wrote: tradenet wrote: Short

[R] RODBC results from stored procedure

Short of uploading a SQL server database, I don't think I can make this example reproducible, but I hope it's not so complicated as to require reproducibility I'm using RODBC to get data from Microsoft SQL Server. I can call a parametrized stored procedure without a problem and the proc does

[R] strange strsplit gsub problem 0 is this a bug or a string length limitation?

I was working with the rmetrics portfolioBacktesting function and dug into the code to try to find why my formula with 113 items, i.e. A1 thru A113, was being truncated and I only get 85 items, not 113. Is it due to a string length limitation in R or is it a bug in the strsplit or gsub
