[R] stata.get labels glm()

[Tobias Caris]

ok, solved it.

In case anyone else is interested:

1st step: import data with convert.factors = FALSE

2nd step: replace only for variable v2 numeric values to labels:

wvs1981$v2 <- factor(wvs1981$v2, labels = labels(attributes(wvs1981)$stata.info$label.table$v2))
