The sdd file extension may mean that the file is in S+ 'data dump' format, made by S+'s data.dump function and readable in S+ by its data.restore function. foreign::data.restore can read some such files in R, but I think it may only read well those with using the pre-1991 format made in more recent versions of S+ with data.dump(old.style=TRUE).

Hi William, Thank you so much for your reply. However, I still got error message:> data.dump(oldStyle=TRUE)Error: could not find function "data.dump"> data.restore("C:/Users/FTSI/Desktop/2 ICGPA/1ACTIVITY.sdd")Error: could not find function "data.restore" Thank you.
