R help - Sep 2003 - Updating R

Could anyone advise me on the easist way of upgrading R from 1.6.2 to 
1.7.1 ? is there a script like the bioconductor update.packages ?
or do I have to download the tar file and build it again ?
apologies for the trivial questions from a biologist


many thanks

Jason
