Exporting descriptives table to Exel format (.xlsx or .xls)

Description

This function takes the result of createTable and exports the tables to Excel format (.xlsx or .xls).

Usage

export2xls(x, file, which.table="descr", nmax=TRUE, header.labels=c())

Arguments

x

an object of class 'createTable'.

file

file where table in Excel format will be written.

which.table

character indicating which table is printed. Possible values are 'descr', 'avail' or 'both' (partial matching allowed), exporting descriptives by groups table, availability data table or both tables, respectively. In the latter case ('both'), two sheets are built, one for each table. Default value is 'descr'.

nmax

Note

The way to compute the 'N' shown in the bivariate table header, controlled by 'nmax' argument, has been changed from previous versions (<1.3). In the older versions 'N' was computed as the maximum across the cells withing each column (group) from the 'available data' table ('avail').
