Hallo Uwe,

family_seq is the object I defined when I read my SPSS data:

family_seq<- read.spss (file="C:\\Documents\\blabla\\fam_seq.sav", 
use.value.labels=TRUE)

What I meant with "What is family_seq?" ist that we do not have thatobject and hence cannot help without knowing what you are doing ...

PLEASE do read the posting guidehttp://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented,minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.

I have the impression (which does'nt help) that something doesn't go right
with importing the data. As I said, all my variables (including the ones listed 
in the seqdef command) are listed when I use the names command.

Thanks for any further ideas.

Hi there,
I am new to R and feel so bloody stupid. Abut in spite of a search of
several hrs I could not find an answer to my problem.

I have imported SPSS data to R, and apart from some warnings regarding
duplicate labels, everything looks fine and names lists all my

variables.


Then I try to run a seqdef command - and get the error message below:

fam.seq<- seqdef(family_seq, var= c ("fseq2_15", "fseq2_16",



What is family_seq?

Error in subset.default(data, , var) : element 1 is empty;

I understand that the problem seems to be with the list of variables I

use

to define what my sequences are.
I tried changing lots of things but nothing helped.
Have I skipped an important step?

Many thanks for your help (I have to sleep now).
