I'm currently using r scripts in sweave to grab some data via ODBC,

way to store the data that is gathered by ODBC so that the second
person can recreate the work without the database (apart from just
writing it to a file or into the document)
What I've done in a case like that is to store the data in a .Rdata file
using save(), then have the Sweave code call load() to load it at the
beginning of the script.
There's also the cacheSweave package (and I think another one whose name
I can't remember) to cache the value of some code blocks; you might be
able to bundle up the document with the cache to send to someone who
doesn't want to re-run the retrieval code.
Another Sweave caching solutions is the "weaver" package.
