[R] RODBC sqlSave / append problem (windows XP, R 2.13.2)

[matthew-c.johnson at ubs.com]

Hi Taby, 
 
i could not work out how to add to a table, so what i did was to kill
the old one and write a new one -- 
 
here is a snippet of my code: 
 
# delete the old table
sqlDrop(con, sqtable="__mytable__") # note this will hang if the table
cannot be found
 
# insert the new table
sqlSave(con,as.data.frame(__myDF__),tablename="__mytable__",rownames=T,f
ast=T)
odbcClose(con)  #Close connection to DB
 
best regards
 
mj

Hi Mj,

did you get a solution for this? I am  having the same error 

 Error in odbcUpdate(channel, query, mydata, coldata[m, ], test = test,
:
missing columns in 'data'

I would appreciate if you can share the solution with me.

Kind regards,
Taby

Dear All, 

Using RODBC I have read in a (429 x 11) dataframe from Access, and would
like to append two columns of transformed data (429 x 2) to the original
table (thereby making it a 429 x 13 table). I would ideally like this to
be the same name etc as the original table in Access. 

I have used the following command: 

R>
sqlSave(con,as.data.frame(SA_data),tablename="Const_mats_8301_t1",rownam
es=T,fast=T, append=T)

And get the error: 

Error in odbcUpdate(channel, query, mydata, coldata[m, ], test = test, :
missing columns in 'data'

Thanks in advance,

mj
