Hi Christain,
You do not give us a reproducible example, nor do yo tell us how you
are creating the table. The following works fine for me:
dat <- data.frame(x1=1, x2=2, x3=3, x4=4)
names(dat) <- c("$\\sum_{i}\\sum_{j}C_{P,i,j,y}\\times\\mathit{FC}_{i}$",
"$XU_{alt,y}$","$n$","$\\bar{C}_{P,y}$")
library(Hmisc)
latex(dat)
on
R version 2.12.2 (2011-02-25)
