Hello again,
I my day to day calculation, I need to take lot of data from Excel and 
forth and generally I use 'clipboard' option with read.delim() function. 
However many time, the data in Excel are like '(111,000)' instead of 
'-111000'. Generally I convert data in the 2nd form in Excel itself and 
then copy to clipboard.
Is there any option in R, so that I can copy-paste '(111,000)' directly 
into R in numeric format? And also pasting data into Clipboard from R in 
the format of '(111,000)'?
Thanks for your input
