[R] help fo finding R package "utils"

Please reply to the list, not to me personally.

When I want to import an Excel file, I usually save it as a tab-delimited
text file and use read.delim to import it:
 
my.dataframe <- read.delim("file.name.txt", header=TRUE, sep="\t") 

See ?read.delim for further details.  There are many other options, I'm
sure, but this is simple and flexible and does not require any additional
packages.

Good luck.
-Christos

	Amina,
	 
	The best way for entering data in R is by importing an existing data
file (text, Excel etc).  This will reduce time and potential data entry
errors. 
	Please read Section 7 of the "Introduction to R" manual for a
detailed discussion of available options.  The manuals are available on your
system (Help menu in the R Console for Windows) or through the R web site.

		Amina,
		
		utils is a base package and should be already installed in a
functional R
		system.
		
		You can try
		sessionInfo()
		
		to verify that it is loaded.
