I recently received a Sigmaplot file (*.jnb)from a customer and would like to know if I can input it to a data frame and then manipulate the data in R. 

I did a search on Google and on RSeek (www.rseek.org), but did not get any good hits. Thank for any feedback and insight you can provide. 

P.S. Love the flexibility of R and would love to keep using it. Just wanting to know if this is possible. Thanks again.
Hi Jason,

I don't know sigmaplot, but I thing is possible export sigmaplot
database for other type of files.

If you export jnb file to csv file is possible read a database in R.

I will talk with a person work with me and  tonight I send other mail
with more details.

Check the package 'foreign'. It can read data from SPSS,Minitab,SAS,Systat (sigmaplot is part of Systat) etc. I also use Sigmaplot and an easy workaround is to convert the sigmaplot file to csv or xls file and then read it into R.
