R help - Dec 2000 - Reading to and from Window files

I have installed R for use on Windows98 (PC) and have problems reading from and
to files in Windows.
I keep getting the message that the file cannot be opened.  Is there anyone I
can contact to get help?

Well, us...

Usually, if a file cannot be opened in R it is because the name is
wrong. Notice that you need to

- include the extension
- use forward slashes ("/") or double backslashes ("\\")
- use only plaintext files (*.txt)

Give us a sample of what goes wrong and we might be able to help.
