Dear R-help list, I'm new to R. I tried to get R to read a Stata data file using the read.dta function in the package "foreign", which I downloaded and extracted to "C:\Program Files\R\R-2.6.2\library" on my pc. I tried
nora <- read.dta("nora.dta")
and got Error: could not find function "read.dta" I guess "foreign" needs to be installed. How do you do this?
library(foreign) or require(foreign)
