After 25 years of using SPSS syntax I am having some problems adapting to R. It would be a huge help for people like myself to have an introductory help document, like "R for SPSS Users". Such a document would jump start SPSS users by covering the use of the foreign function to read ".sav" files, then show equivalent R syntax for the most common SPSS procedures. Once

Hi, I repeatedly get an error when trying to read an SPSS v. 18 .sav file into R. > require(foreign) Loading required package: foreign > femaleSPSS.dat <- read.spss("female-04-02-2010.sav") Warning message: In read.spss("female-04-02-2010.sav") : female-04-02-2010.sav: Unrecognized record type 7, subtype 18 encountered in system file > However, read.spss works

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

Hola Estimadas y Estimados, Alguno podrá enseñarme, en caso de que sea posible, como lvantar desde R una base (o variables) que estén en formato .sav (SPSS). Hay que aplicar una librería distinta library (RODBC)? ,que es la que llamo para levantar bases de un servidor SQL. Espero que esten bien. Muchas gracias. Saludos cordiales, Juan Manuel.

I've started a "tribe" for discussing R and sharing scripts. Tribe.net is one of the popular on-line social communities, like "Friendster". Visit and see if it is a forum that you find useful. To join the "tribe" you will need to register with Tribe.net. I hope it will be of help to newbies, although I'm new to R myself. Here is the url:

Hi Jake, I had and still have got the same problem. There were two columns in the data frame which contain just missing values. When I deleted those the impord seemed to work, but there is still a warning message.

Hi, I used the method read.spss() in library(foreign) to read a .sav file using commands. >library(foreign) >data.sav <- read.spss(''masterfile.sav'') >mydat <- as.data.frame(data.sav) It''s throwing some warnings.. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------

I have loaded the foreign package and am still having problems with an import. I get a message that reads, unable to open file. Whe I try different files I get the same message. Here is the code I used. Am I missing something? I am using 1.7 and have also tried this in 1.6 with the same problem. hsb<-read.spss("C:\HLM504_Student\Examples\AppendxA\HSB1.SAV", use.value.labels=TRUE,

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'

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

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'm using R 2.8.1 on Ubuntu 8.10. I'm writing partly to ask what's wrong, partly to tell other users who search that there is a work around. The General Social Survey is a long standing series of surveys provided by NORC (National Opinion Research Center). I have downloaded some years of the survey data in SPSS format (here's the site:

Dear R-users, I'm facing a problem with the import of data in R. I have a sav file that, I presume, uses some Arabic encoding (but I don't know which one) and I would like to read it with R. When I use the function read.spss (I also tried spss.get(Hmisc)), I get the following message: > read.spss("Hhld.sav") Erreur dans read.spss("Hhld.sav") : erreur ? la lecture

Dear R-users, I have som troubles with .sav file. How is it possible for us R-users to read SPSS files. I know that is possible, I tried the following: > library(foreign) > Corp<-read.spss("/Users/kama/Analysis/Corporation.sav", header=TRUE, > sep=",") Error in read.spss("/Users/kama/Analysis/Corporation.sav", header = TRUE, : unused

I am trying to import a SPSS.sav file into R. The attached file is not technically the file I am trying to import, but does replicate my problem. The actual file is much too large to attach. No matter what I do, I can not get R (base or Hmisc) to apply the value labels in the .sav file to the dataframe created in R. Here's the code that I am using. maine <- spss.get("test.sav") #

Hola, Tengo problemas a la hora de cargar un archivo que originalmente está en SPSS. Trabajo con Fedora y uso R mediante el plugin Rgedit en gedit. Además en Fedora no tengo SPSS, sino PSPP Para cargar el archivo he probado estas dos cosas (escribo también el mensaje de error que me genera R): >library_(foreign) >read.spss("guille.sav",to.data.frame = T) Error en
