I don't use SPSS, so I can't help with the details. That being said, have you looked at the "foreign" package? --Matt Matt Austin Statistician Amgen, Inc 800 9AMGEN9 x77431 805-447-7431 -----Original Message----- From: r-help-bounces at stat.math.ethz.ch [mailto:r-help-bounces at stat.math.ethz.ch]On Behalf Of David Kaplan Sent: Sunday, April 16, 2006 1:35 PM To: r-help at stat.math.ethz.ch Subject: [R] Reading SPSS .sav files Greetings, How to I read in SPSS .sav files into R.

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
