I got the following: > library(foreign) > swal = read.spss("swallowing.sav", to.data.frame =TRUE) Warning message: In read.spss("swallowing.sav", to.data.frame = TRUE) : swallowing.sav: Unrecognized record type 7, subtype 21 encountered in system file >
The bulk of the data seems to read in a usable form, but I'm curious about what might be getting lost because I don't know how to translate type 7, subtype 21. I did not generate the SPSS data so I'm not certain of the version, but I'm assuming version 18 or 19. I did a quick Find on the PSPP manual for Type 7 and subtype 21 and came up dry. Any insights or clues how I might learn more?
