Hello R users,
I would like to use an integer and a date as attributes in sqlQuery,
and these arguments
are defined in my function.
I guess this is clearer comparing to my first post.
Here is my function:
GetReturn<-function(code,date)
{
db<-"C:/Test.mdb"
channel<-odbcConnectAccess(db)
ssql<-paste("select * from tblCalendarDate Where CalendarID
=",code,"and DateRebal >=",date)
print(ssql) # so as i can see what ssql contains
mydata<-sqlQuery(channel,ssql)
mydata
}
This is the content of my table tblCalendarDate:
CalendarID DateRebal
1 29/09/2006
1 10/10/2006
1 20/10/2006
1 31/10/2006

1 20/11/2006

Actually, the channel is open but the query on the table did not
perform the query correctly, here is the
result of the function when i run GetReturn(1,"2007-03-01") for example:
> GetReturn(1,"2007-03-01")
[1] "select * from tblCalendarDate Where CalendarID = 1 and DateRebal
>= 2007-03-01"
CalendarID DateRebal
1 1 2006-09-29
2 1 2006-10-10
3 1 2006-10-20
4 1 2006-10-31
5 1 2006-11-10
6 1 2006-11-20
7 1 2006-11-30
8 1 2006-12-08
9 1 2006-12-20
10 1 2006-12-29
11 1 2007-01-10
12 1 2007-01-19
13 1 2007-01-31
14 1 2007-02-09
15 1 2007-02-20
16 1 2007-02-28
17 1 2007-03-09
18 1 2007-03-20
19 1 2007-03-30
The command paste worked for the CalendarID argument but not for the
second argument DateRebal, I still
have the records where the date is < 2007-03-01.
Thank you for helping.
