3 steps : under Splus:
dput(data.frame,"data.frame.transfer")
then put "data.frame.transfer" in you working R Windows directory under R :
data.frame<-dget("data.frame.transfer")
That would mask the system function data.frame! It's easier to use dump and source to transfer in source format. If using a current version of S-PLUS (5.x or 6.x), do use oldStyle=T when dumping.
Hope this helps.

However I am having immense trouble getting my S-Plus data set into R. I have attempted data.dump/data.restore though I am unable to get it to work for me. The error I am getting in R is : Error in seek(s) : no applicable method for "seek" Is this the best way to import S-Plus datasets or is there another suggestion that I could try? My data set is 284 variables with 1461rows. Thank-you for your help in advance, Trudi
