Dear all,
I just received a file from a colleague in spss. The read.spss could not finish 
the file due to an error (Unrecognized record type 7, subtype 18 encountered in 
system file) so instead I converted the file using stat-transfer. Looking at my 
data I see that most labels are in the attributes and I´d love to access them 
and assign the pertinent variables to factors without doing the whole 
factor(levels,labels) thing manually. Is there any remedy to this ??

regards,

M
