Thanks so much for the many responses on and off this email list!
I think it's helped me reach a resolution. I'm going to use R on my
current small project for something relatively self-contained, such as
some final tests and graphics. I figure this will help me learn some

Regarding RODBC vs. DBI-based packages (RSQLite, RMySQL, etc.) its
my perception, possibly mistaken, that apart from any consideration of
the R packages themselves, ODBC (which originated in the Windows world)
is more widely used on Windows than UNIX. Also ODBC has the problem

I'm just starting to get a grasp on how R works so
don't take my words too seriously but have a look at
http://addictedtor.free.fr/graphiques/ for some idea
of what R can do for publication quality graphics. It
is always possible that you might need another
graphics package as well but I think it

Hi there,
I would like some advice, not so much about how to use R, but about
software that I need to complement R. I've rooted around in the FAQ's
and done a few searches on this mailing list but haven't q
Hi there,
I would like some advice, not so much about how to use R, but about software
that I need to complement R. I've rooted around in the FAQ's and done a few
