This reminds me of a quote from Albert Einstein: "The significant problems we face cannot be solved at the same level of thinking we were at when we created them." ;-) Jim, just for clarification, do you truly mean the SAS *code* or did you mean the SAS *dataset*? If the former, as you are probably picking up, no go. There is no direct translation. It would be like expecting a C compiler to compile Fortan code. If the latter, see either read.ssd() and friends in the 'foreign' package, which is part of the typical R install OR see Frank's sas.get() function in the Hmisc package on CRAN. In both cases, you will need an executable copy of SAS available.
