HI All,

I found that other R users experienced the same problem when using sqldf 
package. An expert provided solution, adding "method="raw" at the end as below, 
one or more of the columns in my data.frame are of class "AsIs" ( I don't know 
what it is) .  When sqldf retrieves the result from SQLite it will be numeric 
or character and since it was originally of class AsIs,  it tries to convert it 
back but R provides no as.AsIs,  so it fails; use method = "raw", so sqldf will 
not try to convert  the results from the database.
DMRlog2pbde47DMS <- sqldf("select * from DMR_log2pbde47 as a left join 
DMS_log2pbde47 as b 
                           on a.chrom = b.chromo and a.start <= b.MAPINFO and 
a.end >= b.MAPINFO", method = "raw" )

Subject: [R] merge two data frame based on equal and unequal comparisons

[Attention: This email came from an external source. Do not open attachments or

Dear R users,

I need to merge two data frames based on both equal and unequal comparisons.  
The "sqldf" package used to work well , but today, I cannot resolve the 
following error by reinstallation of the sqldf package.   Can anyone suggest a 
different way to perform this kind of merge function?

Thank you,

Ding

+ b.MAPINFO and a.end >= b.MAPINFO" )
Error in get(as.character(FUN), mode = "function", envir = envir) :
  object 'as.AsIs' of mode 'function' was not found
