Is there a dataload utility for linux. The link in genstat is down but I managed to find the utility at: http://gurukul.ucc.american.edu/econ/gaussres/UTILITYS/DATALOAD.HTM but this is a dos/windows version. Thank you Jean

I would like to announce that my DataLoad utility which can be found at: http://www.vsn-intl.com/genstat/downloads/datald.htm has been updated to support R data.frames. DataLoad reads a large variety of data formats (listed on the web page) and can convert these to ASCII or XDR data.frames. Only the Windows and Linux versions are up to da...

Thanks to all who have responded. My concern was to be able to write a csv file that can have line feeds in string columns chr(10). Why? Excel allows line feeds chr(10) within cells and line breaks chr(13)+chr(10) at line ending, but the windows version of R automatically replaces \n by \r\n in writing and \r\n by \n in reading (text mode). The clues for a solution came from Brian Ripley and

There is a recurring need for importing large csv files quickly. David Baird's dataload is a standalone program that will directly create .rda files from .csv (it also handles many other conversions). Unfortunately dataload is no longer publicly available because of some kind of relationship with Stat/Transfer. The idea is a good one, though. I wonder if anyone would volunteer...

...nnectExcel("C:/myspread.xls") z.df <- sqlFetch(z,"Sheet1") close(z) but the comments interfere with this. I don't want to manually delete the rows but want the entire process from Excel file to R to be automatic. I can accomplish this with a free utility, Baird's dataload that I found on the net. This will convert the Excel files to text and then the text can be processed using R to locate the start of the header and only process the remainder of the file. (There is also another free utility called xlhtml that I don't use, but could have, that does this to...

I am a new R user attempting to convert files from Statistica to R. I can export from Statistica to SPSS .por format, but not to the SPSS .sav format. Is there a procedure for easily accomplishing this, which will allow me to keep variable short and long labels (big surveys LOTS of time to replace all this work). Many thanks for sharing your time and knowledge. steve Dr Steven M Burgess

Is there any documentation on what kind of SPSS file can and cannot be read by read.spss? Alternatively, how can one modify or "clean" an SPSS file to make it readable by read.spss? What properties must a *.sav file before read.spss can read it? The file in this example is 270KB, with 5 rows and 173 columns. I have no trouble reading larger files with read.spss, so it's not

HI R lovers, I have been facing a petty trouble with datas' import : I have a plain txt file (see attached file or the copy below) that I cannot read either with scan or read.table > scan(file="F:/Alt/HDG/Stoliaroff/Data/test.txt") Error in scan(file = "F:/Alt/HDG/Stoliaroff/Data/test.txt") : "scan" expected a real, got "??6" >

Have a bit of a situation and hope someone can help shed some light. Have the attached samba config on a RedHat Linux AS4 x86_64bit system and have joined the box to our Windows 2003 ADS environment using: Net ads join -Uadmin. We can map a user to their home directory without issue. The [dataload] or other shares we receive a window on our windows boxes that request identification on the other shares, unless we have started and then stopped winbind service. If the winbind service is running, we get the id window again. I sure hope someone can tell us where our config has gone wrong. I su...

Hi.. I have a program called DATALOAD, used to feed data to an Oracle Webform. I managed to install DATALOAD in wine without a problem, but the program can't see the Oracle browser windows, which is run on Linux (Ubuntu 10.04). Is there any trick in order to allow applications inside Wine to interact with applications in linux?...
