Arguments

download.folder	Specifies the folder in which the function will look for .RData files recursively. Per default the R/dwd_data/ directory in the home folder will be used. You can overwrite this behavior by setting options( dwd2r.download.path = "PATH" ) in the .Rprofile configuration file in your home.

If you do not have any data yet, use the dwd.download function to get some.

Value

invisible() but attaches the content of the chosen .RData file to the specified R environment.
