[R] Please help: cannot import files from Windows into R

[Christa Rose]

Can someone please help? The read.table command is not working for me I
think because Windows has my account name stored as "Christa Rose" with a
space in it. Is this a problem? I have tried many syntax iterations, and
cannot get around this.

Here is an example of the syntax I've used:
> RanMinePlay<-read.table("c:\\Users\\Christa
Rose\\Desktop\\Ran_mine_play_data.txt",header=T)
And returned error messages:
 in read.table("c:\\Users\\Christa Rose\\Desktop\\Ran_mine_play_data.txt",
:
  empty beginning of file
In addition: Warning messages:
1: In read.table("c:\\Users\\Christa
Rose\\Desktop\\Ran_mine_play_data.txt",  :
  line 1 appears to contain embedded nulls
2: In read.table("c:\\Users\\Christa
Rose\\Desktop\\Ran_mine_play_data.txt",  :
  incomplete final line found by readTableHeader on 'c:\Users\Christa
Rose\Desktop\Ran_mine_play_data.txt

Can someone help me resolve this??
