# S3 method for Freq ToWrd(x, font = NULL, main = NULL, ..., wrd = DescToolsOptions("lastWord"))

# S3 method for table ToWrd(x, font = NULL, main = NULL, align = NULL, tablestyle = NULL, autofit = TRUE, row.names = FALSE, col.names = TRUE, ..., wrd = DescToolsOptions("lastWord"))

# S3 method for data.frame ToWrd(x, font = NULL, main = NULL, row.names = NULL, ..., wrd = DescToolsOptions("lastWord"))

# S3 method for ftable ToWrd(x, font = NULL, main = NULL, align = NULL, method = "compact", ..., wrd = DescToolsOptions("lastWord"))

# S3 method for TOne ToWrd(x, font = NULL, para = NULL, main = NULL, align = NULL, autofit = TRUE, ..., wrd = DescToolsOptions("lastWord"))

# S3 method for TMod ToWrd(x, font = NULL, para = NULL, main = NULL, align = NULL, split = " ", fixed=TRUE, autofit = TRUE, digits = 3, na.form = "-", ..., wrd = DescToolsOptions("lastWord"))

# S3 method for lm ToWrd(x, font = NULL, ..., wrd = DescToolsOptions("lastWord"))

# S3 method for character ToWrd(x, font = NULL, para = NULL, style = NULL, bullet = FALSE, ..., wrd = DescToolsOptions("lastWord"))

# S3 method for default ToWrd(x, font = NULL, ..., wrd = DescToolsOptions("lastWord"))

Value

if x is a table a pointer to the table will be returned

Arguments

x

the object to be transferred to Word.

font

the font to be used to the output. This should be defined as a list containing fontname, fontsize, bold and italic flags:
list(name="Arial", size=10, bold=FALSE, italic=TRUE).

para

list containing paragraph format properties to be applied to the inserted text. For right align the paragraph one can set:
list(alignment="r", LineBefore=0.5). See details for the full set of properties.

main

a caption for a table. This will be inserted by WrdCaption in Word and can be listed afterwards in a specific index. Default is NULL, which will insert nothing. Ignored if x is not a table.

align

character vector giving the alignment of the table columns. "l" means left, "r" right and "c" center alignement. The code will be recyled to the length of thenumber of columns.

method

string specifying how the "ftable" object is formatted (and printed if used as in write.ftable() or the print method). Can be abbreviated. Available methods are (see the examples):

"non.compact"

the default representation of an "ftable" object.

"row.compact"

a row-compact version without empty cells below the column labels.

"col.compact"

a column-compact version without empty cells to the right of the row labels.

"compact"

a row- and column-compact version. This may imply a row and a column label sharing the same cell. They are then separated by the string lsep.

autofit

logical, defining if the columns of table should be fitted to the length of their content.

row.names

logical, defining whether the row.names should be included in the output. Default is FALSE.

col.names

logical, defining whether the col.names should be included in the output. Default is TRUE.

tablestyle

either the name of a defined Word tablestyle or its index.

style

character, name of a style to be applied to the inserted text.

...

further arguments to be passed to or from methods.

bullet

logical, defines if the text should be formatted as bullet points.

split

character vector (or object which can be coerced to such) containing regular expression(s) (unless fixed = TRUE) to use for splitting. If empty matches occur, in particular if split has length 0, x is split into single characters. If split has length greater than 1, it is re-cycled along x.

fixed

logical. If TRUE match split exactly, otherwise use regular expressions. Has priority over perl.

digits

integer, the desired (fixed) number of digits after the decimal point. Unlike formatC you will always get this number of digits even if the last digit is 0.

na.form

character, string specifying how NAs should be specially formatted. If set to NULL (default) no special action will be taken.

wrd

the pointer to a word instance. Can be a new one, created by GetNewWrd() or an existing one, created by GetCurrWrd(). Default is the last created pointer stored in DescToolsOptions("lastWord").
