[R] RMySQL's column limit

[Mark Van De Vyver]

Dear R-users,
First, thank you to the developers for the very useful R-library RMySQL.

While using this library a recieved an error message:

RS-DBI driver: (could not run statement: Too many columns)

The statement that generated the error was:

dbWriteTable(dbcon, "simdataseries", template, overwrite = TRUE,
row.names = FALSE )

I am assuming this is a RMySQL rather than MySQL limit.
If that is the case I was wondering just what this limit is and if it
is possible to raise it?

Thanks again for all the hard work.

Sincerely
Mark
