...is also now used for sas.get, spss.get, csv.get]. We have found the new SAS import method in sasxport.get to be the most reliable way to convert datasets from SAS if you can run SAS on your system or on a server. An example may be found at http://biostat.mc.vanderbilt.edu/twiki/bin/view/Main/SASexportHowto and the SAS macro is at http://biostat.mc.vanderbilt.edu/twiki/pub/Main/Hmisc/exportlib.sas .

Dear all, I am trying to import a SAS file into R (in fact I only need the value labels from the formats file), using Hmisc package, but I get this error: my.sas <- sas.get("/home/adi/3", "fis1_sgg") sh: sas: not found Error in sas.get("/home/adi/3", "fis1_sgg") : SAS job failed with status 32512 I read some past discussions and I get the impression

Dear all, One of my students (whom I am trying to convince to use R) wants to get a fairly large SAS dataset into R (about 150mB). An obvious and simple thing she tried was to write the dataset as a .csv-file and then read that into R, but that takes forever (or something close to that..). The dataset is so large, that exporting it as an Excel file from SAS is not feasible (more than 65000 lines).
