Hello,

I should first mention that I am not familiar with database management tools, 
nor with database solutions for Mac OS X.

I currently have some data sitting on a MySQL Server version 5.0.51a-24+lenny4 
I access through a web site using phpMyAdmin - 2.11.5.1. That is, the database 
is sitting remotely and I have to access the table containing the data several 
times during each day.

How can I read this data into a R data.frame without having to use phpMyAdmin 
to download a csv file to my machine and then import it from there? Is there 
some SQL query I can run directly from R into MySQL?

I have been looking at RMySQL, am I on the right track? Or should I be looking 
at something else?

Thanks,
Luca
