Another thing to try if you just can't get the other
suggestions to work is:

read.spss(file.choose())

This will bring up up a Windows dialogue that allows you
to navigate to and select the file.

I suspect, you make still a path error. Does your file really have no 
extension (e.g. .sav)? The default behaviour of Windows is to hide 
extensions.

Maybe, read.spss("H:\\Desktop\\bd1\\experiencia1.sav") will help, 
otherwise you may look for a computer expert near you.
