Problems with R package building

Hi,
I try to build a toy package by running the following codes in an R
program
require(stats)
f <- function(x,y) x+y
g <- function(x,y) x-y
d <- data.frame(a=1, b=2)
e <- rnorm(1000)
package.skeleton(list=c("f","g","d","e"), name="test1pkg",
path="D:/R/pkgtest")
Then the program runs smoothly
Creating directories ...
Creating DESCRIPTION ...
Creating NAMESPACE ...
Creating Read-and-delete-me ...
Saving functions and data ...
Making help files ...
Done.
Further steps are described in 'D:/R/pkgtest/test1pkg/Read-and-delete-me'.
Since it is a test, I skip all the documentation work and then type
this line:
R CMD build test1pkg
Error: unexpected symbol in "R CMD" I check on the web about the error message. It's said that the command should be typed in a DOS window (command prompt window?). However it does not work in my DOS window either. Could someone tell me how to process the package building process?
Have you installed the Windows Rtools from CRAN and made sure your PATH is set properly? MW
