[R] read.xport

[Nelson, Gary (FWE)]

Sorry about the version.  I have version 0.8-8 of foreign. I downloaded
(and installed) it this afternoon.  The XPORT files were created in SAS
using PROC COPY.  I used the code:
temp<-read.xport("c:/temp/int82ag.xpt").  I still get only 16 file of
the 24 SAS placed into the XPORT file. The XPORT files come from
ftp://cusk.nmfs.noaa.gov/mrfss/intercept/ag/ if anyone wants to try it.
I used the .xpt in "int82ag.zip" and it appears they were created using
SASV5XPT.

Are you sure: a new version was released a few hours ago?  It may not 
answer your question, but please do give actual version numbers (as the 
posting guide asks).
