Scot, Thanks for the info. I will try your code out to verify the result, but before I do that, will your code (SAS and R) work with variable names that are longer than 8 characters long without truncating the variable name in R? Also, I wonder about using your method or the PROC EXPORT method with larger data sets. The data sets I will be working with for the most part will not be that large,

Scot, Thanks for the additional information. On further reflection... whether one uses SAS PROC EXPORT or uses a SAS LIBNAME yourfile XPORT 'yourpathname'; statement, an intermediate file is created in either case. As far as experience tells me now, PROC EXPORT is a far superior choice, because variable names do not get truncated and you only have to deal with reading in a simple text

I just downloaded and installed R 1.6.1 on my Windows machine where I also run SAS. I want to use the 'read.ssd' function so that I can convert a permanent SAS data set into an R data frame. I downloaded and installed the package 'foreign' on my machine, which includes the 'read.ssd' function. I read the instructions, and followed the example closely in the R

I am attempting to read in a SAS 9.1 data file. After starting R I change to the directory containing the sas data file and use the "dir" command to confirm that it is there. Then I run the following R-code: library(foreign) sashome <- "/Program Files/SAS/SAS 9.1" test<-read.ssd(file.path(sashome), "pcb", sascmd = file.path(sashome,

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 <-

Full_Name: Jeff Hallman Version: 2.4.1 OS: Linux Submission from: (NULL) (132.200.32.34) When I filed this a few minutes ago, I left off the rewritten read.ssd(). I've included it at the end this time. 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

Hello r-help, I notice that r includes distribution, and quantile values for the Chi-Square, F, t, and normal functions. Could someone give me some good reference(s) for how these probabilities and quantiles are calculated. I have already calculated the normal probability values using a Taylor expansion (http://www.sisweb.com/math/tables.htm). I realize these calculations must be very

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.

I am not sure if my message made it through, so here it is again! Hi Rer's, R-1.1.0 I have two questions for you: 1) I am trying to complete a multiple comparison test after completing a one-way ANOVA on some data. I think this is pretty reasonable. aov(MetricSubset ~ GeneNameFactor) works pairwise.t.test(MetricSubset,GeneNameSubset,p.adjuxt.method=bonferroni,p ool.sd=FALSE)

Hi, R 1.0.1, on Linux(mandrake/RedHat). I am trying to write my first function using R and I need help figuring out the error I have indicated in the Subject line above. The purpose of the function is not to "wow" anyone, but just to serve as a stepping stone so that I might write more complicated functions in the future. First I created my function named "CIfunc" and saved

Hi Rers, W/o trying to make a long story short (I hope you read that correctly), I have been working on a nice little R function ... Somewhere along the line I got an error that refers to a max function in my function (I think this is a vector vs. scalar issue): Error in max(..., na.rm = na.rm) : invalid "mode" of argument If that's not bad enough, even when I q() R and say

Dear, I'm following the r tag on stackoverflow.com, and couldn't but notice there are quite some questions popping up that deal with scoping in relation to custom functions. I grinded my teeth on it already, and I have absolutely no clue what goes wrong. The general pattern is as follows : ff <- function(x){ y <- some_value some_function(y) } > ff(x) Error in eval(expr,

Hello, first of all i am not sure wheter this is a correct behavior according to the RFC or not... Problem is, when i set a new custom permanent flag (e.g. testflag) and remove it afterwards, the flag still stays in the list of the permanent flags of this drawer even if there are no messages left with this flag set. So the keyword list gets "polluted" with unused flags. * OK

Hello , I used Vmware 4.0 to setup a virtual linux network . I added a new virtual PC and therefore I need to add a NIC on old virtual PC . I setup the ip address of this NIC by using the command : ip addr add 192..../ 24 dev eth1 but when I restart the computer the ip address of this NIC was not saved . And the tc script I used was not save when I turn off my computer , too . Could
