Possible bug in foreign library import of Stata datasets
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:

Stata support in package foreign
As you know, Stata support in 'foreign' was frozen a while back at Stata
version 12. R-core has received a request from a grad student to 'give
top priority' to supporting Stata 13. That is not going to happen, not
least because none of us has access to Stata.
However, according to Stata's documentation both Stata 12 and 13 use
format 115, so foreign::read.dta should be

Help with write.foreign (exporting data to Stata)
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

Importing STATA files
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:

Large Stata file Import in R
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

read.dta for files from stata 9.0
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,

Stata files
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

import from stata
Dear R users,
I am trying to import a table from STATA, a dta file.
With a table called "table", this is what I do :
library("foreign")
read.dta(table)
It does not work. What am I doing wrong ?

importing from Stata
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

Hi ,

Use

to know the working directory.

Read stata file from internet?
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():

polr probit versus stata oprobit
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'm new to R. I tried to get R to read a Stata data file using the

STATA base de datos
OK.
Lee primero los datos, guarda el data.frame (.RData o en un .csv o lo que
quieras).
Sal de RStudio o incluso reinicia el ordenador para liberar el máximo de
memoria.
Y comienza una nueva sesión con RStudio cargando los datos con "fread()".
Por otro lado, este conjunto de datos ¿cómo es de grande (filas y
columnas)?.
¿Y qué máquina tienes?. ¿Cuanta RAM tienes?.
Gracias,
Carlos.

STATA base de datos
Estimados
Pienso que falta memoria, aparte de las sugerencias ya aportadas, de pronto
se podrían colocar algunos rm(liberar_de_memoria), para no tener ocupado
espacio que no es requerido porque ese paso ya fue realizado.

Ever see a stata import problem like this?
Greetings Everybody:
I generated a 1.2MB dta file based on the general social survey with
Stata8 for linux. The file can be re-opened with Stata, but when I bring
it into R, it says all the values are missing for most of the variables.
This dataset is called "morgen.dta" and I dropped a copy online in case
you are interested
