Re: [R] impossible to open SPSS file

David Barron gave me a good tip that I had not seen:
 Have a look at FAQ 2.16 in the R for Windows FAQ.

 My workaround for that problem is to build the data sheet in Excel and 
 import it to SPSS and R.
 Or to export the SPSS sheet to CSV (or maybe if it is possible to 
 Excel) and import it to R
 SPSS does not externalize the data format :-(
 Regards Knut

We don't have SPSS so unfortunately this work around is not possible.

Thank you both,
Frank

[R] impossible to open SPSS file

2007-04-29 Thread Frank Thomas
Hi,
I try to import a SPSS file with foreign but don't succeed. I looked
into the help pages but find no answer. The file has been produced with
SPSS 15 but I got the same error with a file in SPSS portable format.

mydata-read.spss(C:\Rdata\ESS1_ICT.SAV)
Erreur dans read.spss(C:RdataESS1_ICT.SAV) :
impossible d'ouvrir le fichier

I guess the error is evident for everyone else, but I don't see it.
Thanks
Frank Thomas
