Hi Thomas, I accepted the default path for the download, so no spaces. The restart seemed a good idea, but it doesn't seem to have made any difference. I can't tell if R is running or not. In the R Console box, the ">" prompt appears, but when I try to execute a simple "LS()" it hangs and never executes the command. I'm running Win-x64. It's getting later here in Oz, so I'll have to resume the struggle tomorrow. Thanks once again for your help, Peter On 14/03/2014 9:18 PM, Thomas Friedrichsmeier wrote: > Hi, > > On Friday 14 March 2014 20:55:54 Peter Mayer wrote: >> Hi Thomas, >> >> Thanks for your prompt reply.
