I want R to read my Microsoft Access database or maybe even a Sybase
database. I installed RODBC or at least thought I did. Then I issued the
following command:
library(RODBC)
And got
Error in lazyLoadDBfetch(key, datafile, compressed, envhook) :
ReadItem: unknown type 241
In addition: Warning message:
package 'RODBC' was built under R version 2.3.0
Error: package/namespace load failed for 'RODBC'
I am running R2.2.1 on Windows XP. Where does one begin to troubleshoot
this.

Several people have reported problem with installed packages recently, and several turned out to be caused by the use of the StatLib mirror site.
