...ates Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has adopted a transport format defined by SAS Institute as a standard for electronic submissions of data. As a result, this format has been openly documented. The URL for the documentation on the format is http://ftp.sas.com/techsup/download/technote/ts140.html Information on the FDA standards for Electronic submissions is given at http://www.sas.com/software/industry/pht/fda/index.html Has anyone written code to import data stored in this format into R? Saikat DebRoy and I started reverse-engineering the format before our colleague pointed...

...You can look at the file with a text editor. There is a read.xport function in the foreign package and I think most people would have chosen that one as a first attemp.

...o load a text SAS XPORT Stephen> file, when it should be loading the SAS XPORT file in Stephen> binary format? Is this a problem? I have no idea what you mean by binary/text SAS XPORT formats. R implements the XPORT format as described in http://ftp.sas.com/techsup/download/technote/ts140.html and that definitely is not a text format.

Hello R folk I have an xpt file which I have been trying to open into R in R studio On the net I found guidance which says that I need packages Hmisc and SASxport which I have successfully loaded. I had also found some code which says that this would allow me to read the xpt file into R: library(SASxport) data(Alfalfa) lookup.xport("test.xpt")

Hello, Been thinking about either purchasing one of these or building my own. This will be for home use. I was looking at the QNAP 451+ or building (DYI NAS) one with FreeNAS. I also found that CentOS has a NAS project. Not sure which way to go. They would cost about the same. One would be proprietary and the other open source. I like open source. This for home use. Thought I'd start out

I have encountered a problem reading SAS transport files on both a Mac (OS X) and Linux (RedHat 9), both using R2.0.1. After loading "foreign", the command: read.xport("V1622101_050304.xpt") yields: Error in lookup.xport(file) : File not in SAS transfer format In Linux, I can "cat" the file. The first few lines are: **COMPRESSED** **COMPRESSED** **COMPRESSED**

Full_Name: Ruskin Chow Version: R 2.0.1 OS: Windows 2000 Submission from: (NULL) (203.169.154.66) Data imported from SAS using read.xport() in package foreign are converted to <NA> when the SAS data field consists of character strings that are only one character long. This is apparently a previously reported bug and perhaps fixed in some platform other than Windows (rw2001).Some
