Has anyone hacked up tools for reading/writing CDISC applications (ADaM, SEND, SDTM, ODM) files or using/verifying vocabulary with R? (i.e. via the XML, ontoTools, and similar packages)? (I'd be interested in hearing privately from any consultants/vendors who have been working on this as well; S-PLUS would be a related/relevant target). best, -tony "Commit early,commit often, and commit in a repository from which we can easily roll-back your mistakes" (AJR, 4Jan05).
