similar to: Bug report for package foreign anf functon write.foreign

Dear R-devel, I've made some potential extensions to writeForeignSAS in 'foreign' that I wanted to pass along if anyone is interested. I've attached the diff -u output against the version found in foreign_0.8-15 and an .R file with my changes. (In this .R file, the function is named writeForeignSAS7 to simplify testing/comparisons.) I've tried to alter the current

My question is about the write.foreign() command in the foreign package. I use a command like the following to try and output data and a code file to read my data into SAS. write.foreign(data.frame.object, datafile="filepath", codefile="filepath", package="SAS", dataname="myData") With my data set, it gives the following error: Error in

Full_Name: Jeff Hallman Version: 2.4.1 OS: Linux Submission from: (NULL) (132.200.32.34) read.ssd() invokes PROC COPY to create an xport file, but PROC COPY has some annoying limitations that read.ssd() should deal with. The first is that PROC COPY doesn't work with member names (the sectionnames argument to read.ssd) longer than 8 characters. The second is that PROC COPY also fails if any

I'm trying to read in a sas system file (.sas7bdat) created under SAS 8.2 using read.ssd as follows: > library(foreign) > libname <- "c:/sasuser/consult/" > sascmd <- "c:/Program\ Files/SAS\ Institute/SAS/V8/sas.exe" > subset <- read.ssd(libname, "subset", sascmd=sascmd) SAS failed.

Hello, I'm trying to import a SAS file made using SAS on Unix. Currently I'm using SAS on Windows and I'm trying to import that .ssd04 file to R. The file name of the file is testfile.ssd04 and it is located in 'M:\sasuser'. I'm using Windows XP and R 2.91. Basically what I'm doing is ############ r code ############## > library(foreign) > sashome <-

Hi, I am encountering a confusing problem when I tried to use read.ssd to read SAS datasets. For one SAS dataset "a.sas7bdat", it did not work; while for another SAS dataset "b.sas7bdat" it worked: > tmp<-read.ssd("C:\\SASdata", "a",sascmd="C:/Program >Files/SAS/SASFoundation/9.2/sas.exe") SAS failed.

Hello, I'm actually using the "Step" procedure in R for multiple regression analysis. I'm using the stepwise selection which alternates between forward selection and backward elimination (direction "both" in the step procedure). I would like to know which F-levels R is using to enter and then to remove variables? I also would like which is the procedure to change

Hello, In May 2018 there was some R-devel discussion about a bug in foreign:::writeForeignSAS. See here: https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-devel/2018-May/076220.html and it resulted in a patch. See: https://bugs.r-project.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=17256 And I see the changes in Subversion here: https://svn.r-project.org/R-packages/trunk/foreign/R/writeForeignSAS.R But I don't

Hi, I'm a newbie on * trying to setup an HFC card. I'm locked for many days getting the all-circuits-busy. And no idea what else to look for/how to diagnose. I'm in Spain, I've tried changing many parameters on zapata/zaptelcong with no luck, also NT & TE modes (honsetly, I've no idea what is). Any clue will be very much appreciated! I've installed *@home on my RH9,

here appears to be a bug in the foreign library. The following code used to work, but now generates an error when 'package="SAS"' is specified: ds <- read.csv("http://www.math.smith.edu/sasr/datasets/help.csv") # running foreign package version 0.8-30 library(foreign) # this works fine write.foreign(ds, "foo", "bar", package="Stata") #

Hi everyone, I am new to the list. My problem is to change the color of the label in a contour plot. The plot is quite dark and I'd like to have the line and label white, it works for the line with a simple "col", but for the labels I need to pass throught a panel call and : > contourplot(Prob ~ D.CSW *

Hi all, This may seem like a dumb question, but I work for an entity that is soon converting to XP across the board, and I will lose the ability to install software on my own. The entity has a policy of only using software that has been purchased and "properly licensed" (whatever that means). This means I will soon lose the ability to use R at work - something I can't do without

I tried to use write.foreign() to export to SAS this morning and got an error. When I looked at the code for writeForeignSAS() I saw this line: dfn < -df which I think should be dfn <- df So, I tried to run update.packages() to see if there was an updated version and got the following result. > update.packages(c("foreign")) Warning message: In list.files(lib) :

A while ago (April 2002) there was a short thread on software for generalized linear mixed models. Since that time, has anyone written or found R code to use a glmm to analyze binomial data? I study CWD in white-tailed deer, and I'd like to do a similar analysis as Kleinschmidt et al. (2001, Am. J. Epidemiology 153: 1213-1221) used to assess control for spatial structure in malaria
