Hi R,

 

Suppose that SAS dataset 'tsubset1' is stored in the path, "Z:/data".
Then I give the below read.ssd() command to read SAS dataset,
'tsubset1.sas7bat' into R.

 

> library(foreign)

> s=read.ssd("Z:/data","tsubset1",sascmd = "C:/Program Files/SAS/SAS
9.1/sas.exe")

> s

  A B C

1 3 4 5

2 6 7 8

3 3 4 5

 

It reads perfect! It reads well for "tsubset1","tsubset2",.....,
"tsubset9" datasets. But then onwards it gives an error as below:

 

*       s=read.ssd("Z:/data","tsubset10",sascmd = "C:/Program
Files/SAS/SAS 9.1/sas.exe")

 

SAS failed.  SAS program at
C:\DOCUME~1\SHUBHA~1.AMB\LOCALS~1\Temp\1\RtmpObHuqk\file6df11649.sas 

The log file will be file6df11649.log in the current directory

Warning message:

In read.ssd("Z:/data", "tsubset1011", sascmd = "C:/Program Files/SAS/SAS
9.1/sas.exe") :

  SAS return code was 2

 

Why is this? Are two numerical digits in a filename of a SAS dataset
cannot be read by R? The error prevails for "tsubset201", "tsubset35462"
etc.... Can somebody point out to me where actually the error is?

 

Many Thanks,

Shubha
