[R] Loop over folder files

[ruipbarradas at sapo.pt]

Hello,

The op could also use package sos to find that and other packages to  
read stata files.

install.packages("sos")

library(sos)
findFn("stata")
found 374 matches;  retrieving 19 pages
2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19
Downloaded 258 links in 121 packages

The first package is readstata13 but there are others.

Hope this helps,

Rui Barradas
