@wim.bekkensThanks for that.
For a simple example, take a look at this series that is now coming out on Simple-talk. It walks you through an example application that involves using R to report KPIs in a SQL Server database.

Phill,
R was cool but unless you are working at the NIS isn't it dated?
When compared to some of the newer and highly maintained Graphical Stat Display tools such as the free Sigma Plot MySystat http://www.systat.com/MystatProducts.aspx R feels like an amber screen from the 80's.
Don’t get me wrong. It was awesome and I used it.
Now there are IMHO better tools that require less heavy lifting.
