Hi, I have a problem with R; it won't start! I've installed it fine, no problems, but when I try to run it the mouse cursor changes to an hourglass for 1 second and back to normal, and that's it, it doesn't start up. No error messages or nothing. I run Windows XP Pro. by the way. I'd be thankful for any help. [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Can you be more specific? Which icon did you click? Is it Rgui or Rterm (you should double click on Rgui) Kevin -------------------------------------------- Ko-Kang Kevin Wang, MSc(Hon) Statistics Workshops Co-ordinator Student Learning Centre University of Auckland New Zealand

Let us know if there's any difference between running Rgui and running Rterm. And let us know the version number you're running. Duncan Murdoch
