R help - Nov 2004 - excel/r interface

Dear all,

I am quite new to R and for preofessional reasons I was interested in the
R/excel interface by Baier and Neuwirth. After setup I see the Rexcel and the
Rhelp on the Menu bar of Microsoft Excel XP. However, after putting the formula
=RApply("pchisqr", 30, 1) Excel returns the message "could not
start Rserver". Any suggestions how to fix this. How do run this
application in R.

Any will be appreciated

Please ask such questions on their mailing list, not the R one.  See

for where.
