R help - May 2009 - The setting of .Library.site in Rprofile.site doesn't take effect

Dear R users,

     I am trying to customize the .Library.site in the file
etc/Rprofile.site under Windows XP, but it seems that the setting
doesn't take effect. My setting is:
     .Library.site <- "d:/site-library"
     But after I lauched R 2.9.0, the value is always
"d:/PROGRA~1/R/R-29~1.0/site-library"

     Could anyone help explain what is the matter? Thanks.

Best wishes,
Leon

Oh, sorry, my own fault. I had set a HOME evironmental variable,
and there was a .Rprofile in it, and the setting of .Library.site was
overriden there.

Regards,
Leon
