similar to: Stata support in package foreign

Hi. I'm trying to export a dataframe from R into Stata to use a statistical function I have there. I attached library write.foreign and renamed my variables to get them to match Stata's required format, and now have the following error: "file /tmp/Rtmps7rmrM/file1c06dac8.raw not found" Other than typing write.foreign, do I need to do something in R to get it to save the file

Dear R-list, I am currently working on a dataset with a colleague who uses stata. We fit a random intercept model to the data (decisions clustered in participants) and get closely the same results in stata (using xtreg re) and R (using the lme4 or multilevel package). Now in stata, there is an additional option for the regression to control for clustering; the vce(cluster clustvar) option,

Concerning this article, Christopher Zorn, "Generalized Estimating Equation Models for Correlated Data: A Review with Applications." 2001. American Journal of Political Science 45(April):470-90. The author very kindly provides data for replication on his web page: http://www.emory.edu/POLS/zorn/Data/GEE.zip. I've been comparing the Professor Zorn's results obtained with

Hi, An R newbie here. I am using R 1.6 currently and have (successfully, I think) installed the Foreign package. Tried to import a data file created with Stata 7.0 SE. Had minor problems with syntax then R decided that my file was not really a Stata file. It rejected the file saying 'Not created by Stata 5-7/SE'. Any suggestions on how to convince R that this is really, truly a Stata

Dear All, I have been struggling to understand why for the housing data in MASS library R and stata give coef. estimates that are really different. I also tried to come up with many many examples myself (see below, of course I did not have the set.seed command included) and all of my `random' examples seem to give verry similar output. For the housing data, I have changed the data into numeric

I have a client who uses Stata 11. Can anyone advise me on ways of transferring data from this version of Stata to R? Reading the documentation for read.dta in package foreign it seems it only allows for versions up to Stata 10. I don't know Stata at all but a bit of poking around on their website led me to believe Stata 11 couldn't write in Stata 10 format. However Stata 11 can

Dear R-helpers, if I want to read a .dta-file generated by stata 9.0 with read.dta (foreign), I get the message "not a stata version 5-8 .dta-file". I'm using R-2.6.2 and the latest version of the foreign package. Has someone any hint? With many thanks, Albrecht

Dear Everybody: I'm doing my usual "how does that work in R" thing with some Stata projects. I find a gross gap between the Stata and R in Cox PH models, and I hope you can give me some pointers about what goes wrong. I'm getting signals from R/Survival that the model just can't be estimated, but Stata spits out numbers just fine. I wonder if I should specify initial

I'm an R novice who is struggling with the importation STATA files into R. I've loaded "foreign" and tried the example based on the Swiss file, which works fine. I then placed a STATA file, auto6.dta, in my working directory, which is "C:\Program Files\R\rw1030\library\base\data". The following is what happened: > library(foreign) > read.dta(auto6) Error in

Hi I am using Stata 10 and I need to import a data set in stata 10 to R, I have saved the dataset in lower versions of Stata as well by using saveold command in Stata. My RAM is 4gb and the stata file is 600MB, I am getting an error message which says : "Error: cannot allocate vector of size 3.4 Mb In addition: There were 50 or more warnings (use warnings() to see the first 50)" Thus

Dear all, I am trying to replicate some multilevel models with binary outcomes using R's "lmer" and "glmmPQL" and Stata's gllmm, respectively. The data can be found at <http://www.uni-koeln.de/~ahf34/xerop.dta>. The relevant Stata output can be found at <http://www.uni- koeln.de/~ahf34/stataoutput.txt>. First, you will find the unconditional model,

Hi, I have a new job, and everyone here uses Stata. I won't give up on R, but I must learn better how to exchange data between the two softwares. I am now focusing on importing data from Stata to R, and I must confess that I am a bit disappointed with the read.dta function from the foreign package because IT typically happens that (i) I get a big R file (for example, a 15Mb Stata file

Dear R-helpers, I would like to have my students read into R an online Stata dataset: 'http://www.stat.ucla.edu/projects/datasets/risk_project.dta' I was able to read it into R after downloading it and converting it with StatTransfer (http://www.stattransfer.com/). Here is what happens when I use read.dta() as I would use read.table(): > require(foreign) > risk2 <-

Hi, I am new to R and I want to export data into Stata. Could somebody help with that? Thanks a lot.

Hello I would like to develop the use of R. Trying R and more particulary the cox model, I am surprised by discrepancies between results with stata and R for a cox model With the same data base, I get a hazard ratio (4.82) that is not the same obtained with stata (4.52) You will find attached the file leukemia.dta I used (Stata) Here are the codes for R library(foreign)

Dear All, I am given some data to analyze. The data is in the form of a Stata database (.dta file). What is the best way to import it into an R dataframe? Is there any particular caveat I should be aware of? Many thanks Lorenzo

Hi, I am a Stata user new to R. I am using read.dta to read a Stata file that has variables with value labels. read.dta converts them to factors, but seems to recode them with values from 1 to <number of factor levels> (looking at the output of unclass(<varname>)), so the original numerical values are lost. Using convert.factors=FALSE preserves the values, but seems to discard
