Hi folks,

 

Our IT people are now supplying SPSS via “the cloud,” meaning that it no longer resides on my hard drive (supplied via Citrix).  How do I get R and Python extensions to work in this situation?  Can I load them on my own machine, without having SPSS there?  Can IT load them there, making them available to me via “the cloud” as well?  I’ll admit that I haven’t tried it yet, as I was hoping someone has already been there and can offer some guidance before I start randomly trying things.  Thanks for any help.
