Dear All,

I installed R 2.7.0 and tried to call a dataset i had ealier own called
on R2.6.2 but i keep on getting an error:
use("maltreat.dta")

Error in fromchar(x) : 
  character string is not in a standard unambiguous format

Tried doing the same with R2.7.1 but i get the same error.

However if i call the same on R 2.6.2, there is no error:

use("maltreat.dta")
> des()
 
 No. of observations =  670 
   Variable          Class           Description
1  scrno             integer                    
2  todaydate         Date                       
3  ethnic            character                  
4  othtribe          character                  
5  dob               Date

7  agemths           integer                    
8  sex               character    

I cannot figure out what the problem is.
