[R] text mining problem using TM package

[Andy Adamiec]

Hi, I’m using R (TM package) for text mining and I’m having problems
filtering articles out of my data set by local meta data.



Here is the code:



*data <- ("C:/… /19970331")*

* *

* *

*rs <- ReutersSource(data , encoding = "UTF-8")*

*RC <- VCorpus(DirSource(data), readerControl = list(reader =
readRCV1asPlain,*

*
language = "en_US",*

*
load = TRUE),*

*
     dbControl = list(useDb = TRUE,*

*
      dbName = "texts.db",*

*
      dbType = "DB1"))*

* *

* *

* *

*tm_index(RC, FUN = sFilter, doclevel = F, useMeta = T,  "Topics == 'MCAT'")
*

* *

* *



When I use  sFilter, I can only filter fields in yellow, I want to filter
fields in red, what am I doing wrong?



Thanks, Andy
