Building an R package under Windows NT

Benjamin.STABLER@odot.state.or.us 
Thanks for the suggestions.  

1) I fixed the zip.exe PATH issue.
2) I removed unnecessary quotes around C:\Program Files\R
3) I ran Rcmd install emme2 with the following result:

---------- Making package emme2 ------------
  adding build stamp to DESCRIPTION
  installing R files
 175373 [main] sh 352 proc_subproc: Couldn't duplicate my handle<0xA4> for

  installing indices
make[1]: *** [indices] Error 255
make: *** [pkg-emme2] Error 2
*** Installation of emme2 failed ***


4) I ran Rcmd build --binary emme2 with the following results:


D:\>Rcmd build --binary emme2
* checking for file 'emme2/DESCRIPTION' ... OK

5) I ran Rcmd check emme2 with the following results:

D:\>Rcmd check emme2
* checking for working latex ... OK
* using log directory 'D://emme2.Rcheck'
* checking for file 'emme2/DESCRIPTION' ... OK

Thus I am not doing something correctly.  I was able to install the package
via the "install from local zip file" option in RGui though.  But I can't
search for any of my functions and the 00Index.html file was not created.
Do I need to create 00Index.html with Rdconv?  I thought maybe I should use
"Rcmd build --binary --docs=html emme2" but the "--docs=html" option is not
working for me.  The html is less important to me than the make working
correctly (atleast I am guessing so).  Any ideas as to why the make portion
of the check/build is failing?  Thanks.
