Hi Livio,
I think you mixed something up. The .sps - files are the syntax files of
SPSS, and I think there is no automated way (but I would like to be
corrected there) of converting SPSS syntax to R-code. The usual data
files of spss have the extension .sav. Such files can easily read by
read.spss (package foreign) or spss.get (package Hmisc), if you think
the variable labels of SPSS are fancy the latter approach is possibly
more appropriate, because it adds an attribute with this label to each row.

Hi everyone,
I'm trying to import .sps (SPSS portable file) file.
the read.spss function (library foreign) doesn't allow to import such files.
should I import in spss and then save as sav file? there is not other
solutions available?
what I mostly like from spss file is that they have variable labels.
want is really wish to keep are the variable.labels from the spss file; so,
if there is a different way to bring them from the sps file will be also ok
(I also have a csv copy but without the variable.labels obviously).
thanks for any answer..
