Dear David,

There is the read.spss() function in the foreign package, and spss.get() in
Hmisc. The former is a part of the standard R distribution, so you could
have discovered it via, e.g., help.search(SPSS)

I hope this helps,
 John

I don't use SPSS, so I can't help with the details.  That being said, have
you looked at the foreign package?
