I didn't use the library(foreign).  Thanks, I'll give that a go.

  Use library(foreign), not capital letter F. 

  You may try spss.get function in Hmisc package.

    Hi,

    Because I'm new to R and trying to move off of SPSS, I have another 
question.  I downloaded the "Foreign" package which I understand reads in 
various datasets from programs such as SPSS and SAS.  There isn't much 
documentation that I can find regarding the specifics of this in the online 
docs, but I assume that it is like read.table.  So, here is what I wrote and 
here is what I got.

    bw2 <- read.spss("c:\birthwt.sav")
    Error: couldn't find function "read.spss"

    Any thoughts?

    Thanks again for your help.

    David
