file names under Windows [was: [R] please help me!]

If I may make a suggestion, it helps if you use informative subject
lines in your email to a high-traffic list like this.

I always find it tedious to remember how to write file names in
Windows (there are rules about '\' and '/' characters) so I use the
file.choose() function, which brings up a chooser panel.  Although you
haven't said what you want to do with the file, let's assume you are
going to source some R code in the file.  Then you could use

source(file.choose())
