a question about "latex" in Hmisc
The .dvi file is being created in the working directory for sure, not sure whether it's in the tmp folder or not. (I just tested on my home machine which only has R but no MikTex installed, I can see only .tex file in the tmp folder. No .log file in the tmp folder.) ...Tao ----- Original Message ----

Hi Richard, Obviously, the list doesn't like my attachment. Here it is: http://i41.tinypic.com/15qz387.jpg I set the path using Windows control panel. And "didn't work" means I'm still getting the same error window shown above.
Well, it's hard to say what's going on
unless I can get on a Windows machine and replicate it. That path is R's temporary directory, so it seems the DVI file is either not getting created, it's getting created in a different place than it's expected, or something is looking in the wrong spot for the .dvi file. You mention in your original post that the .dvi file is created. Can you confirm that this is true? Did you mean in the temp directory, or in your working directory? Check the .log file in the temp directory if one exists with the same base name as the .dvi file in the error message.
