Hi everyone
I am a new useR running R on a Windows platform with Emacs.  I have been 
searching package manuals and email archives trying to solve this problem but 
have been unable to find a solution.  Your help with this is appreciated.
 
I have generated random points within a polygon shapefile (with 1 polygon) 
using dotsInPolys.  I now want to sample a field (attribute data) of another 
polygon shapefile (with >>> 1 polygon) to add data to the points dataframe 
based on the point's spatial location (known by ArcView user's as a spatial 
join).  Is there a command in one of the spatial packages that would allow me 
to do this (I have found join.asc; however, I am looking for a command that 
will allow me to join vector data).  As I am new to posting, suggestions for 
clarifying my question or additional details I should provide would be 
appreciated.  Thank you for your time.
 
Sincerely,
