I have been using some old R scripts that were prepared for me using R Version 1.9.0. In these, there is a call to library(locfit) and with this version of R, I have no problem. But needing to upgrade to the latest version of R, I find these scripts no longer work, and with help(locfit) I get Error in help(locfit): Object locfit not found So my question is - what is available that has replaced locfit, and that will do the same thing as locfit, but with the latest R version? You will realise from this that I have no expertise in using R or in writing R scripts, and will greatly appreciate any advice. Many thanks Stuart Barker J.S.F.

My guess is that you have not configured you new installation to see (and update) your collection of packages. As a quick fix, what happens when you go to your favorite CRAN mirror and install a new copy of locfit? My version is 1.5-4 and runs with recent versions of R.
