wide<-reshape(Indometh,v.names="conc",idvar="Subject",
+ timevar="time",direction="wide")
Error in tapply(a, data[, idvar], function(b) length(unique(b)) == 1) :
arguments must have same length
This doesn't appear to be reproducible on non-Windows machines, and I'd suspect that Brian checks quite carefully for this kind of thing on Windows as well. You wouldn't happen to have something floating around in your workspace that could get in the way? Otherwise try turning on debug(reshape) and when it is defined also debug(reshapeWide). Then tell us what is in a and data[, idvar] when the problem appears.
Yes, example(reshape) works on that build on the machine on which it was built. Running all the examples is part of make check, so if they fail for you it is very likely to be a local problem.
