Hi, I have a need to process (in real-time) a large number of .sas7bdat files from within R. The problem is I don't want to convert these files to .xpt (transport) every time. So just checking if anyone has a (viable) way to read .sas7bdat files directly into R?
SAS now advertises some sort of R support (see http://support.sas.com/rnd/app/studio/Rinterface2.html), so maybe you could get SAS to convert them to a native R format. I think you won't find a way for R to read a SAS proprietary format.
