Hello,

Could you tell us something more about your infrastructure? Windows? Linux?

On Unix/Linux you could use cron to have a R process to read all the files in the given directory, process them one by one and archive them in another place.

On Windows, no idea.

Alternatively, you could perhaps ask your users to use some kind of web interface to upload the data. This interface could then trigger an R process.

Best regards,

Hello,

I am working on a project. The new data files is coming as the data
collectors get data, then
the data collectors put these new data files in a folder. I need to
read these new data files when they are in folder.
so far, I did this job manually, that is to say, each time I go to
that folder and find new data files, then use my R program to
read these new data files. I am wondering if anyone know how to
perform this job automatically in R.

thanks,

jlm
