Hello all,
I don't understand why this won't work.  I have entered:

WriteXLS(alldata,'test.xls')

and I get this error message:

Error in get(x, envir = envir) : variable names are limited to 256 bytes.

My variable names are not very long, and are accepted by write.csv.

alldata is a list containing 4 dataframes, with each dataframe having the
the same variable names, which are:

> names(avg8302)
 [1] "ID"            "cluster"       "rec.unit"      "int.hib"
"yr.hib"        "yr0309.hib"    "int.hib.se"    "yr.hib.se"     "
yr0309.hib.se" "int.cl"
[11] "yr.cl"         "yr0309.cl"     "int.cl.se"     "yr.cl.se"      "
yr0309.cl.se"  "int.ru"        "yr.ru"         "yr0309.ru"     "int.ru.se"
"yr.ru.se"
[21] "yr0309.ru.se"  "int.sp"        "yr.sp"         "yr0309.sp"     "
int.sp.se"     "yr.sp.se"      "yr0309.sp.se"

Does anybody know how I can fix this?  Or another way to write a multi-sheet
xls?

Thank you.
