[R] dbSendQuery with R variables

[kMan]

?paste

See also,
http://rwiki.sciviews.org/doku.php?id=large_scale_data:lsdioi_sqchunk for
additional examples.

Assuming stations[1:2] are tables your database:
simpleQuery<- paste("SELECT * FROM", stations[1]) # should read the whole
table when invoked
dbGetQuery(con_stations, simpleQuery)

Is this sort of what you had in mind?

Sincerely,
KeithC.

Rhelpers:

I'd like to modify this RSQLite statement:

rs_stations<-dbSendQuery(con_stations, "select * from stations")

so that stations is actually an R variable, e.g.:

stations=c("stationA","stationB")

How would I modify the above statement to query from stations[[1]] (aka
"stationA")?
