Accessing Reuters data from R/VBA

I use the market QA data base and I would like to be able to access the data directly from R or vba or even another language if n开发者_Go百科eeded to pursue my studies. I couldn't find any API, has anyone here already done this before?

Thanks

The 'tm' package has some worked examples. You may need to be more specific about what or of data you are targeting.
