Martin,
If you have trouble finding page 74 of Introduction to R, you can get
the information that Marc suggested you read by doing the following. At
the R prompt enter
help.start()
Then when you see the web page "Statistical Data Analysis R", click on
the SEARCH ENGINE & KEYWORDS link. In the search box enter SPSS.

read.spss() is part of the "foreign" package, which is installed as
part
of the base R installation, but it is not loaded by default.
Thus, you need to use:
library(foreign)
read.spss(...)
See ?library and page 74 in "An Introduction to R".
