Maybe I could help. I do the same thing all the time. I know it&#39;s boring to open files in R. Look what I did in R, when open a converted (from gretl) file:<div><br></div><div><div>tax &lt;- </div><div>  read.table(&quot;C:/Users/cdshikida/Documents/Meus Documentos/textos/textos em andamento (e planilhas)/cargatributarianovo/novocargatrib.R&quot;,</div>

<div>   header=TRUE, sep=&quot;&quot;, na.strings=&quot;NA&quot;, dec=&quot;.&quot;, strip.white=TRUE)</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>I don&#39;t know exactly the nature of your problem, but it could be the difference between anglo-saxon world in decimals separator and latino&#39;s convention of using comma instead.</div>

<div><br></div><div>Hope this could help you.</div><div><br></div><div>Best Wishes</div><div><br></div><div>Claudio</div><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, May 23, 2012 at 10:48 AM, Leandro Zipitria <span dir="ltr">&lt;<a href="mailto:leandro.zipitria@gmail.com" target="_blank">leandro.zipitria@gmail.com</a>&gt;</span> wrote:<br>
