R is not able to re-encode the file to the native encoding. But if you keep it in UTF-8, what is the problem to grep for the specific characters (as grep and friends support the argument useBytes these days)?

Best,

Hello Uwe,

Quoting Uwe Ligges <lig...@statistik.tu-dortmund.de>:
You can arrange the former without a loop by

xml <- paste(t, collapse="")
Thank you, another trick to improve my R-skills :)

For the other problem you are reporting: Can you make (the relevbant
part of) your file available (say on some web site) so that we can test
what is going on?

I've put the file here (I know quite inconvenient, but since I have no
space respectively no access to space, this is the only chance to
provide you the file)

http://rapidshare.com/files/357494808/file.xml.html

It's an ordinary xml file created with word 2007 with a table, in which
the values from a specific data frame should be written.

Another step to solve the problem was to set the global option encoding
to UTF-8, since it is possible to read and sink this file without any
special encoding options (of course with no grep-possibilites at special
characters)
Setting the encoding-option, however, didn't solve the problem at all. :/


Thank you for your help,
Tom
