How to import SAS file defining codes by SAS format catalog file
Dear Sir/Madam, Hello, this is Kei Takeuchi in Japan Automobile Research Institute. I am using R to import SAS file in NHTSA. This is happening since SAS is too expensive software. I successfully imoported SAS file which is *****.sas7bdat by R. Now I want to define codes in SAS file like 1 to Alabama. Now all the data in SAS file is codes(for example 1,2,3...) which is hard to see. I use code book(published in UMTRI) to see what the codes mean) Defining code to text is possible in SAS where file called formats. sas7bcat. Is it possible by R? Thank you.
