R help - Mar 2005 - trouble loading R function code

I created an R function offline with a text editor and saved it as fhv.R
When I type in 
load(file="fhv.R")
I get the message
Error: bad restore file magic number (file may be corrupted)-- no data
loaded
I've checked the file, and it opens up fine in Notepad and other text
editors. I also tried this from another folder and got the same message.
What's going on?
Thanks in advance.
