    1. COThanks. Not trying to pick a fight, I just got tired of that mailing list a long time ago. I can send examples files to anyone who wants to take a look. I created an identical file using SPSS 11. This one imports without error. I looked at them both in okteta, but I'm a bit out of my league working with binary files. But, having two files should make it easier to ID what has changed. There are some differences but without first going through the import code, I don't have any particular notion of why it is throwing the warning.

    2. CODarned character limits . . . . The copyright date of spss.c in the foreign package is 2000. Without going through all of the changelogs, it is possible this code hasn't been substantially touched in a long time. I am going to email the owners listed in the copyright file, but they may not be actively developing the code anymore. I don't know anything about reverse engineering binary file formats, but I'm willing to learn/help if there is someone here who could point me in the right direction.

    3. COMy reluctance to discuss this on the R mailing list is because of comments like the ones from DWin and Andrie. Many of the participants on the R mailing list share your attitude, but tend to be less polite about sharing them. I find such elitism to be nearly insufferable. I spread FOSS by using it and showing people that it works, not by standing on a soap box.
