Hello,
The way to do this is to export the data as another file. One is to
export as a SAS file, read it into SAS to create a permanent data set, and
then use sas.get to read it into S-plus. This is the long way and only
useful if you need the SAS data set. The other is to export as a comma
delimited file (can't check it now, but I'm sure it's there). This can be
read with read.table very easily (use sep="," argument).
Good luck,
Chuck Kincaid

Hi,
Quick question: Anybody got a nice mechanism for reading Epi Info files
into S-plus?
They are ASCII files and could be hacked, but it is non-trivial and
error-prone... Or I could download Epi Info and see if it can write out
a friendlier format - but I don't speak Epi Info!
Anything easier before I reinvent wheels?
Steve
