When importing data from SPSS, it is a nice feature of the package
foreign that
it allows (option use.value.labels=F) to work with the original SPSS
codes while
keeping the value labels as information in an attribute. Unfortunately,
after
merging or subsetting, these attributes disappear.
The code below illustrates the problem: Variable time originally has value
labels that are gone after merging or subsetting.
It would be very helpful, if this could be changed.
With kind regards, Ulrike

the Hmisc package.
