>
> I am using spss.get to import an SPSS database
> "Data.sav", created with SPSS 14 :
>
> df1 <- spss.get("C:/temp/Data.sav" , lowernames=TRUE,
> datevars = c("dateinte"))
>
> I am getting this warning. I get the same warning with
> read.spss.
>
> Warning message:
> C:/temp/Data.sav: Unrecognized record type 7, subtype
> 16 encountered in system file
>
> This is a stupid question but should I be worried
> about it? So far the data looks clean but it is not
> my data base originally and I wondered if there is
> anything specific that I should be checking for.
