Hey all, I am just born today in the r language and I discover that it the language that I need for my research. I don't too much yet about this language. I want to know if I can find in this language and install the package data set related to " The Framingham Heart Study", see references here: http://content.nejm.org/cgi/content/full/357/4/370 http://www.framinghamheartstudy.org/participants/original.html http://www.framinghamheartstudy.org/participants/offspring.html http://www.framinghamheartstudy.org/participants/genthree.html cheers Kalulu

Hi Kalulu, To use the Framingham dataset, you must apply to the researchers. See the "Research Application" options on the "For Researchers" menu. The data itself is supplied in SAS format. You will have to use the sas.get function in the Hmisc package or something similar to translate this to something that R can read. Jim
