I'm unable to open an SPSS file over my network.  If I copy it to my
local C:/ drive I can read it.  I saved the command (in a "crib sheet"
text file) in order to avoid all the typing, so I'm pretty sure I've
done it before.  I verified that the file I'm trying to read is OK.
This is what happens:

 

> SurveyData <-
read.spss("P:/Jobs/6015.Orange.Rapid.Survey/SurveyData/4.ProcessedData/D
elivery4/mrb_delivery.sav", use.value.labels=TRUE, max.value.labels=Inf,
to.data.frame=TRUE)

Error in
read.spss("P:/Jobs/6015.Orange.Rapid.Survey/SurveyData/4.ProcessedData/D
elivery4/mrb_delivery.sav",  : 

  unable to open file

Am I just loopy in thinking I've ever read this directly from the
network drive?

Did I do something stupid that "broke" read.spss?
