R help - Jan 2009 - Cor(df,method = "kendall")

Hi All,

Does anyone know of any issues at all with using;

Cor(df,method = ³kendall²)

On a dataframe (df) 13 columns wide say?

Seems to hang my system for a while in calculating the correlation matrix ­
appreciate it is doing some ranking calculations so I am expecting too much
that it should return immediately ? In particular trying to use function in
Excel (reval) and I am getting OLE error boxes as RGUI hangs.

Many Thanks.

Glenn
