Subject: spss-data import
Hi Jon, Peter,
thanks for your immediate help. The command
allbus<-read.table("d:/tab.dat",sep="\t",dec=",")
works fine -- ok, I just took a part of the whole dataset.
BTW: I use SPSS 10.0... so read.spss won't work.

That's curious. 'My' read.table doesn't know the echo-
argument (I use r1.2.3, win32). Have a look at the results
of ?read.table:
read.table(file, header = FALSE, sep = "", quote = "\"'",
dec = ".", row.names, col.names, as.is = FALSE, na.strings
= "NA", skip = 0, check.names = TRUE, fill = FALSE,
strip.white = FALSE, blank.lines.skip = TRUE)
Thanks again for your help,
Bernd
