Hi Mario!
I'm not really familiar with this kind of manipulations, but I think you
can do it more or less like this (some people on this list might give a
more detailed answer):
#Create an empty named list
list_df <- vector(mode="list", length=length(lista_rec_c))
names(list_df) <- lista_rea_c ##or some part of it using gsub or
something similar
#Import
for (i in lista_rea_c) {
list_df[[i]] <- read.xlsx(...)
}
#rbind
do.call(rbind, list_df)
This probably won't work like this exactly but you should be able to
make the modifications.
HTH,
Ivan

Hello everybody
I have the following problem. I have to load a number of xls files from
different folders (each xls file has the same number of columns, and
different numbers of rows). Each xls file is named with a number, i.e.
12345.xls and is contained in a folder with same name, say 12345)
Once loaded, I want to rbind all of them to obtain a single database.
I think I successfully did the first part, using "assign":
for (i in lista_rea_c){
name=paste("reaNum",i,sep="",collapse=NULL)
assign(name,read.xlsx(file=paste(path,i,"/",i,".xls",sep="",collapse=NULL),1,header=TRUE,as.data.frame=TRUE))
}
where lista_rea_c contains the "numbers" and is obtained
as: lista_rea_c = list.files(path = "/Users/mario/Dropbox/..., and path is
defined elsewhere
At this point I have a number of variables, names as "reaNum12345" ecc.
I would like to rbind all of them, but what I get is that I rbind
"reaNum12345", i.e. the variable name and not the data it contains.
Can anyone help?
thanks!
Mario
