Hi all, I would like the following code to work, but it doesn't:

library(DBI)
library(RODBC)
m <- dbDriver("RODBC") # Example for dbConnect(DBI), causes error
m <- dbDriver("ODBC")  # Example for DBIDriver-class(DBI), causes error

The errors are:
Error in do.call(as.character(drvName), list(...)) :
 could not find function "RODBC"
(substitute "ODBC" for "RODBC" to get the second error)

I've successfully used RODBC without using the DBI interface, and I've
successfully used the DBI interface with SQLite.

Am I doing something wrong here or is DBI simply not implemented for ODBC?
The latter seems unlikely considering the wide use of ODBC, but you never
know. I hope it's just me doing something wrong

'DBI simply not implemented for ODBC' has value TRUE.
You would do better to ask such questions on R-sig-db.


Best,
Magnus
