Hi,

I have to search in an online db for registered manufacturers of raw
materials.
Can I use R for the following:
I have a list with monograph numbers eg: l<- c(198, 731,355)

Now I want to make a dataframe, containing the monograph number and the
information listed under COS:
Certificate holder, certificate number, Status, Type

Is this possible with R?

kind regards


Bart

You don't describe the format of the database. If it's HTML or XML, the scrapeR package may do the trick.
