Hi,

Look at the RODBC package on CRAN by Prof. Ripley:

  https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/RODBC/index.html

and be sure to read the package vignette for additional information:

  https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/RODBC/vignettes/RODBC.pdf

There is also the r-sig-db e-mail list, which is focused in this domain, and where follow up questions should be posted:
