[R] Odp: problem with writing data to *.xls file

[Petr PIKAL]

Hi

It depends if you have Excel available

write.excel<-function(tab, ...) write.table( tab, "clipboard", sep="\t", 
row.names=F)

this function I use for copying object through clipboard to opened Excel 
file.

just

write.excel(someobject)
open excel list
Ctrl-V

puts an object into a list.

Regards
Petr
