Frank,

It is a non existing issue for me if the variables of class "labelled" (and only "labelled") can only be numerical variables (integer or numeric).

Sebastien

'labelled' can apply to any type of vector. I'm not clear on the problem this causes you. Please provide a command that is broken by this behavior.

Dear R-users,

The sasxport.get function (from the Hmisc package) automatically defines the class of imported variables. I have noticed that the class of theoretically numeric variables is simply "labelled", although character variables might end up been defined as "labelled" "Date" or "labelled" "factor". Is there a way to tell sasxport.get to define numeric variable as "labelled" "integer" or "labelled" "numeric"?

Sebastien,

If that would fix a problem you're having we could look into it. Otherwise I'd tend to leave well enough alone.

Frank


Thank you

Sebastien
