 Convert the file into a csv file( myfile.csv),
delete some of the unwanted rows before importing into R.
Save the file on your working directory and then import into R:

x <- read.csv("myfile.csv")
 # Change column names
names(x) <- LETTERS[1:ncol(x)];x

Change your column names to whatever you want
