This was a commonly used package for reading Excel files and writing to
Excel files. New versions are no longer downloadable from CRAN (see link
here for a discussion). Old versions are still available from the
CRAN archives in
tarball
formats (some Windows zip programs can read it) and new zip versions are
available from this link:
version 1.3.3. This
new version is what I recommend to use. You can install in R by
selecting PACKAGES > INSTALL PACKAGE(S) FROM LOCAL ZIP FILES.
