R help - Mar 2009 - R library help files

Dear All,

I am writing an R library myself. The package build ok, and can be installed.
But when I load the library into R using library('xyz'), then I type
?xyz for help in one of the functions named xyz as well, the following error
occured,
No documentation for 'xyz' in specified packages and libraries:
I do put the .Rd files into the man folder, and the html help files are all well
generated.

Does anyone encounter this before or have any clue about what might cause this? 

Thanks a lot!
Regards,
Dajiang

Have you specified

\alias{xyz}

in the Rd file?
Also, run R CMD check on your package which will tell you about such 
problems.
