get("a[1]") : object 'a[1]' not found
so? cleared out, and now it?s working: Must have been an obscure workspace conflict. Thanks for quick helpful replies
a <- 1:4
assign("a[1]", 2)
a[1] == 2
[1] FALSE
get("a[1]") == 2
[1] TRUE

In the help for get(), the following example is given:
a<- 1:4
assign("a[1]", 2)
a[1] == 2 #FALSE
get("a[1]") == 2 #TRUE
However, executing that last line for me gives
Error in get("a[1]") : object 'a[1]' not found
What did the second line say? It's the line that created the `a[1]` object. Duncan Murdoch
