Hi Paul,

Codes that produces the error:
Error in ogrInfo(dsn = dsn, layer = layer) : Cannot open layer

and the traceback:
3: .Call("ogrInfo", as.character(dsn), as.character(layer), PACKAGE = "rgdal")
2: ogrInfo(dsn = dsn, layer = layer)

Hi Henk,

We need more details to be able to solve your problem. What kind of 
system are your using (sessionInfo() command)? Could you provide use 
with a piece of code that reproduces the error. What was the exact error 
and what piece of code generated the error (use traceback()).

cheers,
Paul

ps You replied to an earlier e-mail on the r-sig-geo list([R-sig-Geo] 
semivariance analysis of categorical variable). This breaks the 
threading and adds your e-mail to the thread of the above mentioned 
e-mail. Sending a new e-mail makes a fresh new thread for your problem.
