[R-sig-DB] Getting R to call a stored procedure

[Keith Hobbs]

Hi

I'm trying to get R  (v 2.0.1) to call a stored procedure which is on 
a Microsoft SQL Server 2000 database. I've been looking through the 
documentation for the DBI package and presumed I'd need a specific 
driver for SQL Server. I've searched through Google but I can't find one.

Does anyone know if there is a sql server driver, or one planned?

Alternatively is there an ODBC driver that I can download?

Thanks in advance.
