Re: [R] Importint stata file and using value labels
I solved this problem using the nonint.factors=F,generate.factors=F) when i imported the dta files. Thanks to all. My issue can be declared as solved.

Re: [R] Importint stata file and using value labels
There has been some good advice not to lose the labels, but perhaps this gets you where you seem determined to go? ?read.dta read.dta(file, convert.dates = TRUE, convert.factors = TRUE, missing.type = FALSE, convert.underscore = FALSE, warn.missing.labels = TRUE) or library(readstata13) ?read.dta13 read.dta13(file, convert.factors = TRUE, generate.factors = FALSE, encoding = NULL, fromEncoding = NULL, convert.underscore = FALSE, missing.type = FALSE, convert.dates = TRUE, replace.strl = FALSE, add.rownames = FALSE, nonint.factors = FALSE) Perhaps the convert. factors setting at FALSE?

Yep. Im a bit stalled. I can't find the option to import only the values and drop the value labels from the dta file. Im quite sure R can do that.

Re: [R] Importint stata file and using value labels
Hi You can use as.numeric(sex) to get numeric values for factor variable. This is sometimes handy for plotting. However if you throw away labels how do you know what naumber belongs to which factor level?

Re: [R] Importint stata file and using value labels
You need to (re-)read the "Introduction to R" document that comes with R. R Is not Stata, and you should not expect R to look syntactically like Stata. Note that if you, against normal R convention, wish to manipulate the integers that a factor is implemented with, you can create such a variable using as.integer( sex ), but beware that bad data or changes made to the factor definition before your analysis step will render your assumptions about specific integer values invalid. For example the order of levels for sex might go c("M","F") or c("F","M") so 1 could mean different things based on decisions made elsewhere. -- Sent from my phone. Please excuse my brevity.

[R] Importint stata file and using value labels
Hi Im a bit lost. Ive imported a stata13 file. When i try to make a simple table(region[sex=1],type[sex=1]) i get something as type1 type2 region1 0 0 region2 0 0 region3 0 0 I don't know how to operate with the value labels. Sex is defined as 1 as "Man" and 2 as "Female". And region1 is 1, region2 is 2 and so on. So, how can i make reference to the value and not the value labels when i write down some condition or statement ? I know is simple, but using the help for readstata13 didn't clarify it to me.
