With gsubfn if you preface your function with fn$ as shown below then it turns on a quasi-perl style string interpolation: library(gsubfn) organization <- 3 org_table <- fn$dbGetQuery(conn,""SELECT id,organization_name FROM civicrm_contact WHERE contact_type=$organization") See ?fn and the gsubfn home page (http://gsubfn.googlecode.com) for details. -- Statistics & Software Consulting GKX Group, GKX Associates Inc. tel: 1-877-GKX-GROUP email: ggrothendieck at gmail.com ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
