[R] Reading S-plus data in R

[roslinazairimah zakaria]

Hi William,

Thank you so much for your reply.

However, I still got error message:

> data.dump(oldStyle=TRUE)
Error: could not find function "data.dump"
> data.restore("C:/Users/FTSI/Desktop/2 ICGPA/1ACTIVITY.sdd")
Error: could not find function "data.restore"

Thank you.
