Dear All,
I often need to do some work on some data which is publicly available on the EUROSTAT website. I saw several ways to download automatically mainly the bulk data from EUROSTAT to later on postprocess it with R, for instance

http://bit.ly/HrDICj
http://bit.ly/HrDL10
http://bit.ly/HrDTgT

However, what I would like to do is to be able to download directly the csv file corresponding to a properly formatted dataset (typically a dynamic dataset) from EUROSTAT.
To fix the ideas, please consider the dataset at the following link

http://bit.ly/1coCohq

what I would like to do is to automatically read its content into R, or at least to automatically download it as a csv file (full extraction, single file, no flags and footnotes) which I can then manipulate easily.
Any suggestion is appreciated.
Cheers

Lorenzo
