Most universities here have SPSS licences and therefor the dll is available. I did not found yet any copyright notice on the developer part of the SPSS CD. Maybe the DLL is usable with the own program without the SPSS Licence. I will look for that if using the I/O dll is possible with R. All necessary C codes are delivered with the developer kit on the SPSS CD.
