Pasting into a table works with table-data if it is TAB separated. The space is too often needed inside a table cell in the general case. > But I don't see why the copy-paste does not work?

You might ask for an extension of the customizable csv2lyx "insert CSV data" feature to work also as "Paste>Special>CSV" so you do not need to create and import a temporary CSV file. A quick workaround would be convert the spaces to tabs in your R output, to generate an empty table with M-x tabular-insert 7 9 (adjust column and row numbers) and paste the data there Günter
