What is the working directory, getwd() ?

That's where R will look. give read.xport the full path to your file? YOu might also look at sas.get from the Hmisc package.

I must have this file in the wrong directory.  I can see it and it's spelled 
correctly in my command (including case) but I get:

open file: 'No such file or directory'> There are several subdirectories under C:\Program

sure what I'm doing wrong. I'm running SAS 9.1.3 on an UNIX box. I ftp'd the file over to my C:\Program Files\R\R-2.8.0\ directory on my local machine running WinXP. Suggestions appreciated.> ___________________
