Data imported from SAS using read.xport() in package foreign are converted to <NA> when the SAS data field consists of character strings that are only one character long. This is apparently a previously reported bug and perhaps fixed in some platform other than Windows (rw2001).Some discussion of the bug can be found from the following website: https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-help/2002-April/019349.html I've downloaded the latest foreign package (foreign_0.8-1.zip) from CRAN but it doesn't seem to work. Thanks in advance for throwing light if I missed something here. ______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
