[R] how to lmport this dataframe into R

[Felipe Carrillo]

Hi:
I need help with a dataframe(see pic attached). is a mix of dates and text.
I want to create a table either using latex function from hmisc or xtable. I
already know how to do this but the problem is getting the dataframe into R.
I don't have a reproducible example but I am hoping that the pic attachment
will make it to you. If someone is interested in helping with this task I could
send the excel file offlist. Thanks
