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 , library(foreign) write.dta(data1, "data1.dta") should work. The file will be saved in the working directory. Use getwd() to know the working directory.

I'm trying to read in a Stata file but I've never used this function ( read.dta). It's the only one that seems to come close to working, but I keep getting this error: > data<-read.dta("C:/Documents and Settings/Chris/Desktop/S4412/catestscores.dta") Error in read.dta("C:/Documents and Settings/Chris/Desktop/S4412/catestscores.dta", : a binary read

Thanks in advance. I pass data sets between R and Stata and think dta files would be the best files for this. To do this I can use package foreign or package memisc. I mostly use foreign, although have used memisc and this problem mostly didn't happen, but created errors at other times. I have a csv data set (and created a test case) with with at least one column completely missing. This

Hi, I am new to R and I want to export data into Stata. Could somebody help with that? Thanks a lot. This is the code I am using: > setwd("D:/datasets/Seg-bcn/ESBD") > data1 <- readRDS("r17045_ESDB_Habitatges_BDD_V_1_0.rds") > library(foreign) > write.dta(data="data1", file = "D:/datasets/data1.dta") Error in write.dta(data =

Hope everyone id doing great .. Just need some clarification over the limit of write.dta. I have some coauthors that use stata and I need to send them my data in .dta format. the data.frame is 41706x229 and I get the following Error in write.dta(Panel, file = "STATADATA/Panel.dta", version = 7) : a binary write error occured Once I subset the data everything works out fine. my

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

I use to work whit stata dataframe, so, when I use R I type read.dta Until today I do that without any problem, after type: mydata<-read.dta("C:/dropbox/dataframe.dta") attach(mydata) Everything works great... but today, when I typed: mydata<-read.dta("C:/dropbox/dataframe.dta") attach(mydata) Appeared: Error in substr(these, 1L, 6L) : invalid multibyte string at

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 R-help list, I'm new to R. I tried to get R to read a Stata data file using the read.dta function in the package "foreign", which I downloaded and extracted to "C:\Program Files\R\R-2.6.2\library" on my pc. I tried > nora <- read.dta("nora.dta") and got Error: could not find function "read.dta" I guess "foreign" needs to

Hello, I need to write out a data matrix as a STATA 7 file and this happens perfectly with write.dta(), except I cannot seem to export the labelnames to Stata. So far I have tried the following: # X is the data matrix that is to be exported attributes(X)$var.labels <- c("apple", "banana", "cat") write(X, filename = "text.dta", version = 7) When i

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

Dear R listers, I have a silly problem. I am trying to load a dta (Stata) file in R. The dta is about 650 MB and contains the integrated World Values Survey/ European Value Study data-set. My problem is that I don't manage to load the file. After almost 3 hours after I issued the following command: data <-

Dear Sirs, I am just starting with R and I think it is a great system. Now, I want to import Stata datasets (.dta) with read.dta, but receive errormessages like: Error in grep("^(http|ftp|https)://", file) : object "Rklein" not found Error in read.dta("Rklein") : unable to open file: 'No such file or directory' this happens when I use "" What is

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 http://www.ku.edu/~pauljohn/R/morgen.dta looks like this

Dear all I imported a Stata .dta file with the read.dta-function from the foreign-package. The dataframe's dimensions are > dim(d.apc) [1] 15806 1300 Importing needs up to 15 min and calculations with these data are rather slow (although I subset the data before starting analyses). My questions are: 1. Has someone experiences importing Stata files (alternatives to read.dta) ? 2.

hello, for my present project i need to use the data stored in a ca. 100mb stata dataset. when i import the data in R using: library("foreign") x<-read.dta("mydata.dta") i find that R needs a startling 665mb of memory! (in stata i can simply allocate, say, 128mb of memory and go ahead) is there anyway around this, or should i forget R for analysis of datasets of
