Hi list, By the entire last 2 weeks I was looking for a way to directly import xlsx files to R in a Linux OS (Ubuntu 9.04). I already read the R Import/Export guide, and I know how to use gdata to import xls files and read.table to import .csv. My problem is that all data that I receive is in the xlsx format, and I have to convert all the files to xls. Well, when I was using Windows Vista OS, RODBC did the trick with the odbcConnectExcel2007 function (which I know is not present in the Linux RODBC package, probably due to drivers issue). Isn't there a way to import this xlsx files directly to R without any previous conversion (.csv or .xls)?
Thank you for the attention, it's probable that some one already asked it. I even remember seen that somewhere, but without a definitive answer. Rodrigo.
