LaTeX and Sweave on windows

2 messages · Bos, Roger, Yihui Xie

I am completely new to LaTeX and Sweave, so I am trying to follow the
tutorial in the following link:

http://www.r-bloggers.com/using-latex-r-and-sweave-to-create-reports-in-
windows/

I installed MiKTeX 2.9 and TeXnicCenter, but I get a build error when
compiler the example file:
The two errors are: "Error: running 'texi2dvi' on 'test.tex' failed" and
"R> ! LaTeX Error: File '(.xls' not found."

I am using a 32-bit windows machine and R 2.14.1patched.  Any
suggestions are welcome, including links to other tutorials.

Thanks,

Roger
