Importing data using Foreign
Thanks guys. but I'm a bit confused. the input is the first column (z[,1] and z1[,1]). How is it possible that a subset of a non-NA vector, contains NA?

Offhand, I suspect that the NAs are in the 8th column.

(.sav)
using "read.spss". I imported data (z) without any problem. After importing, the first
column
doesn't contain any "NA". but when I choose a subset of it (like: z[z[,8]=="11"|z[,8]=="12"|z[,8]=="14",]), lots of NA appears (even in
the
first column).
The (.sav) file is the output of Compustat (WRDS).
It is terrible, I can't find the mistake.
Thank you in advance for your help,
