Thanks. One more question. If I use install.packsges, do I need to install Rtool or utils package is sufficient?
It depends on how demanding the package is. For the one you mentioned, you will need the Rtools, since C/C++ sources are to be compiled. And it won't work out of the box, since some manual tweaks are required - at least the last time I tried. Do you know that the package is available from CRAN extras if form of a Windows binary? install.packages() without the type="source" argument should work right away. Uwe Ligges

Hi, I'd like to ask a installation question. I want to install a source code through the following command, R CMD INSTALL RDCOMClient
This is intended to be used in the shell of your OS (assuming Windows given the package), not in R.
From within R use install.packages("RDCOMClient", type="source") if you really want to install from source.

but get Error: unexpected symbol in "r cmd"
Please let know if I miss anything. I my utils package loaded.
Thanks,
