... and is there also such a nice tool (like spss.get) for exporting data frames to SPSS? write.table does not keep the data frame labels - neither did the other exporting tools that I found. Thanks! Michael [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Dear R people: I wish to switch from SPSS to R, but there is one particular type of ANOVA design that cannot be done in R. Or more likely, it can be done, but it is nowhere documented. The problem is typical for psychologists: You have a repeated measures design with different groups of subjects. Now, this can be done with the aov command, but the number of subjects in both groups must be

system.file("",package") is documented to return the root of the package (as it did in the past). It actually returns "" (Win98, R1.3.0), breaking the SJava package Omitting the first argument does work correctly and so is a workaround if the argument is explicitly "" but not if it is the value of a variable. -thomas

Hola! I have problems running Rcmd check (windows 98, R1.3.0) It ckoks on an example running a function which calla bringToTop(). This makes an error because Rcmd check runs the examples with the postscript device, and bringToTop does not make sense with that device. Howevere, my function is for interactive use, and needs bringToTop. How can this be used in examples and still have the

Hello r-help, I'm trying to split a character vector of dates of the form "dd-mmm-yy" into component days, months and years. But > library(chron) > testdate<-as.POSIXlt(strptime("17-Sep-98","%d-%b-%y")) > testdate [1] "1998-09-17" > months(testdate) [1] "September" # which is fine, but for days and years I get >

Hi. I'm using the tree package to fit one tree from a training set. I'm using the command: hm.tr <-tree(X1~.,teste2, mindev = 0, minsize = 2) and i get the error: Error in "row.names<-.data.frame"(*tmp*, value = fit$node[1:n]) : duplicate row.names are not allowed the frameset, has 180 columns and 16000 rows.

SPSS seems to have changed its default datafile format, resulting in issues for read.spss(). In Windows this results in a warning, in Debian the import completely fails: Debian (R version 2.8.0 (2008-10-20) i486-pc-linux-gnu, foreign_0.8-29) > read.spss("/home/jeroen/samples/Tomato.sav") Error in iconv(names(rval), cp, "") : unsupported conversion from 'CP65001'

Hello, does anyone have experience with reading SPSS Version 15.0 files into R (version 2.4.1, WinXP)? I have long been sucessfully reading SPSS files with read.spss from the wonderful foreign package, but somehow after upgrading from SPSS14 to SPSS15 I seem to have problems. Trying a simple example, where test.sav is a SPSS 15.0 data file consisting of x1=c(1,2,3) and

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

Hi all, I'm giving a talk in a few days to a group of psychology faculty and grad students re the R statistical language. Most people in my dept. use SAS or SPSS. It occurred to me that it would be nice to have a few concrete examples of things that are fairly straightforward to do in R but that are difficult or impossible to do in SAS or SPSS. However, it has been so long since I have used

Hi, I would like to read a spss file in R. When i type read.spss("...") Comes the error: couldn't find function "read.spss" What shall i do? Margarida [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hallo! I read SPSS data in the following way: library(Hmisc) library(foreign) dat<-spss.get("surv_abb.sav") In R1.9.1 I got the message: "Error in all(arg == choices) : Object "typeDate" not found" In R1.8.0 the same script works fine. Does anybody know a possibilty to read a SPSS file under R1.9.1? Thanks! Karl

Full_Name: Roger Newton Version: 2.8.1 OS: windows 2000 Submission from: (NULL) (80.176.228.157) I have an elderly version of SPSS (version 11) which I still use. R Version 2.6.1 would, and still will, read SPSS *.sav files produced by SPSS version 11. R version 2.8.1 which I installed two days ago (05/02/09) reports an error and shuts down when trying to read SPSS version 11 *.sav files using

Hi all. I have an SPSS file that I'm loading into R with the Hmisc spss.get function. The trouble is that the SPSS file uses the Windows-1252 character set (which I think is the default for SPSS on Windows) instead of plain-ol' Latin-1, and since spss.get doesn't allow me to pass the "reencode" option to read.spss, any characters in Windows-1252 that are not a part of Latin-1

I am using read.spss in the foreign package to read an SPSS save file. For date variables I get huge values such as 11489990400.

Hi everyone, I'm trying to import .sps (SPSS portable file) file. the read.spss function (library foreign) doesn't allow to import such files. should I import in spss and then save as sav file? there is not other solutions available? what I mostly like from spss file is that they have variable labels. want is really wish to keep are the variable.labels from the spss file; so, if there is a

A couple of months ago, probably using an older version of R, R used to run the following code just fine: library("foreign") data.exp1 <- as.data.frame(read.spss("dataDef.sav")) Issuing the same commands now (after starting R using --vanilla), gives me the following behavior: > library("foreign") > x <- read.spss("dataDef.sav") Error
