The error message is literally true, as you did not specify any data to the function at all. Please read the documentation. Also, note that rcspline.plot is largely replaced by the R rms package, although it may have value if there is only one predictor and that predictor is continuous. Also note spelling of "logistic".
You will need to load the rms package when using rcspline.plot anyway. When reading SPSS files you may find the Hmisc package's spss.get function useful. You've already loaded Hmisc if using rcspline.plot. Please follow the posting guide.
