Hi Rs,
Has anyone on this list successfully used package
RODBC to connect to an Oracle database using Windows
operating system?
I am using Oracle 8.0.6 database (later Oracle 9i)
with Windows NT operating system.
I still need to read the manuals etc., but I was
hoping to get feedback regarding whether there were
limitations on the length of an R variable name to 8
characters which I encountered when trying to read SAS
data into R.
Are there any other tips with regard to connecting to
an Oracle database that you could supply me with
before I get serious in trying to solve this problem?
Thanks in advance,
Stephen
