Dear R users,
I am trying to get R to read an .sav data file generated in SPSS 17
for Mac. Here is the command and the error message:
> data = read.spss('/Users/userdir/Desktop/filename.sav')
Error in iconv(names(rval), cp, "") : unsupported conversion
In addition: Warning message:
In read.spss("/Users/userdir/Desktop/filename.sav") :
/Users/userdir/Desktop/filename.sav: File-indicated character
representation code (28591) looks like a Windows codepage
I understand the source of the Warning message and am not too
concerned about this, but I could not find any information about this
particular Error message. Does anyone have suggestions or know how to
get around this?
This is in R 2.7.2, R.app GUI 1.25. Any help would be appreciated--I
am an R newbie.
Maria
