hi,
i have been using a 64 bit desktop machine to process a whole lot of
data which i have then subsequently used save() to store. i am now
wanting to use this data on my laptop machine, which is a 32 bit
install. i suppose that i should not be surprised that the 64 bit data
files do not open on my 32 bit machine! does anyone have a smart idea as
to how these data can be reformatted for 32 bits? unfortunately the data
processing that i did on the 64 bit machine took just under 20 days to
complete, so i am not very keen to just throw away this data and begin
again on the 32 bit machine.
sorry, in retrospect this all seems rather idiotic, but i assumed that
the data stored by save() would be compatible between 64 bit and 32 bit
(there is no warning in the manual).
The data would normally be compatible on all architectures. However, it
may need the same version of R (or a newer one), and may need to have
the same packages installed in order to read it.
