Subject: Extracting data from .zip file in WINDOWS version of package

Hello,

I am building a R-package for Genetics analysis. The accepted data is in pedigree (.ped) file format.

To load the data (say CAMP.ped) from "data" directory, I have a function "CAMP.R", which does the job.
The package builds successfully in Linux (.tar.gz) and the data loads successfully by "data(CAMP)".

However, when I build the package in WINDOWS, the data directory is zipped, and the command "data(CAMP)"
gives an error - 
Error in readGenes(gfile = "CAMP.ped",....)
Genotype file CAMP.ped does not exist.

While debugging "data(CAMP)", I found that only the file "CAMP.R" is extracted temporarily, and not the file 
"CAMP.ped" - which causes the error.

Linux version does not face this problem as the data directory is not zipped.

Could you please suggest a way around for this problem?

Thanks.

Best,
Nitin
