[R] importing excel-file

[John C Frain]

To avoid complications, save your file as comma separated and use one
of the instructions for reading delimited files.  If you are using a
comma as a decimal point you are probably using ; as a separator.  If
this is so use read.csv2.  Please see the help files for read.table.

Best Regards

John
