Hi Jim,
Thanks for your suggestion. I tried scripting but gives me an
error. Can you tell me what am I doing wrong here ?
*> list.files()->org_xml_dirs
Please do turn that arrow around....
for (i in org_xml_dirs){
+ setwd("/home/anupam/Research/Anupam_data/ORG_XML_FILES/i")}
There is no directory .../i
Your probably want:
setwd(file.path("/home/anupam/Research/Anupam_data/ORG_XML_FILES/", i))

Error in setwd("/home/anupam/Research/Anupam_data/ORG_XML_FILES/i") :

You can get a list of all the files in a directory (list.files) and then do
a file.info to determine which ones are the directories you want to
search. A list.files on that directory will give you the list of file names
that you can then process.

Dear all,
I have this directory structure :
Dir1 Dir2 Dir3 Dir4 .........................
A.xml D.xml G.xml
B.xml E.xml H.xml
C.xml F.xml I.xml
Within each of these directories (Dir1, Dir2 etc) there are a num of xml
files (A.xml, B.xml etc).
What I want to do is to enter into the first directory read all the xml
files do certain operations come out of the directory and do the same
thing
for another directory. Can anyone help me out ? Thanks in advance for any
suggestions.
Regards,
Anupam Sinha
