Hello All, I'm suffering from a corrupted .RData which I believe arose from a shutdown while the session was in the process of saving the image. I wonder if theres something I can do to recover the data? (the fatal error message is contained below) Unfortunately, there was quite a bit of new code prior to my latest backup, which I would hate to rewrite. kind regards andy /data2/royle/NWI> R13 --vsize 100M --nsize 1000000 R : Copyright 2001, The R Development Core Team Version 1.3.0 (2001-06-22) R is free software and comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY.
