I got a table on SQL Server, which has columns EquationId (int) and Formula (varch(900)). I need to select Formula with certain EquationId, for example,
Select Formula from OGA_DEV.dbo.Equation where EquationId = 3 I tried to work within RGui using RODBC: > library(RODBC) > conn = odbcConnect("SQL Server") > odbcQuery(conn, "Select Formula from OGA_DEV.dbo.Equation where EquationId = 3") [1] 1 > results = sqlGetResults(conn) > close(conn) > results$Formula [1] ((-0.19*({EthanePropaneMolFracTotal}*100)^2)+(12.3*({EthanePropaneMolFracTotal}*100))-13)*0.8 Levels: ((-0.19*({EthanePropaneMolFracTotal}*100)^2)+(12.3*({EthanePropaneMolFracTotal}*100))-13)*0.8 > typeof(results$Formula) [1] "integer" > typeof(results$Formula[1]) [1] "integer" Formula was there. Notice that results$Formula has Levels. To get the formula, I tried > formulaLevels = levels(results$Formula) > typeof(formulaLevels) [1] "character" > formulaLevels[1] [1] "((-0.19*({EthanePropaneMolFracTotal}*100)^2)+(12.3*({EthanePropaneMolFracTotal}*100))-13)*0.8" These works well within RGui. Then I tried to use RDCOM to communicate with .net: StatConnector curve = new STATCONNECTORSRVLib.StatConnectorClass(); curve.Init("R"); curve.EvaluateNoReturn("library(RODBC)"); curve.EvaluateNoReturn("conn = odbcConnect("+@"""" + "SQL Server" +@"""" +")"); curve.EvaluateNoReturn(odbcSqlQuery);//Select Formula from OGA_DEV.dbo.Equation where EquationId = 3 curve.EvaluateNoReturn("results = sqlGetResults(conn)"); curve.EvaluateNoReturn("close(conn)"); curve.EvaluateNoReturn("formulaLevel = levels(results$Formula)");//Exception throwed here curve.Evaluate("formula = formulaLevel[1]"); string[] equationStrings = (string[])curve.GetSymbol("formula"); It throwed exception: SafeArrayTypeMismatchException at formulaLevel = levels(results$Formula) Any comments/suggestions where were wrong with the abobe code and how to get formula from SQL Server table to .net?
