Raphael,
This looks like fixed width format which you can read with read.fwf.
In fixed width format the columns are not separated by white space (or
other characters), but are identified by the positition in the file.
So in your file, for example the first field looks to contained in the
first 2 columns of your file (the first 2 characters of every line),
the second field in the next five columns, etc.
Regards,
Jan

Hi!
I have to import some TXT files into R, but the separation between the
columns are made with different blank spaces, but each file use the
same separation. Example:
31 104 5 0 11RUA SAO
SEBASTIAO 25
BAIRRO FILETO
01
00200338540000
The pattern is the same on each file.
There is two sample files attached to this message.
I would like to figure out how to import a single file, and the use
some code to import several files (like this
http://www.ats.ucla.edu/stat/r/code/read_multiple.htm)
When I try read.table, I receive this:
cnefe <- read.table("sample1.txt", header=FALSE)
Erro em scan(file, what, nmax, sep, dec, quote, skip, nlines, na.strings, :
linha 1 não tinha 17 elementos
