My question is about the write.foreign() command in the foreign
package. I use a command like the following to try and output data
and a code file to read my data into SAS.
write.foreign(data.frame.object, datafile="filepath",
codefile="filepath", package="SAS", dataname="myData")
With my data set, it gives the following error:
Error in make.SAS.names(names(df), validvarname = validvarname) :
Cannot uniquely abbreviate the variable names to 32 or fewer
characters
I tried to write reproducible code but could not. I'm not sure where
to go from here. What are the naming protocols for variables so that
they can be exported using write.foreign()?
Thanks!
Andrew Miles
