[R] Importing data into R

[Dave Evens]

I have a highly formated Excel with multiple tabs. Is
it currently possible to read this data into R without
changing the format of the Excel file? 

Also, is it possible to write back to the same Excel
file or at least create a new Excel file with the same
formatting as before with modified data which has been
processed in R.

Thanks in advance for any help that you can provide.
