Hi, I have a fresh install of R 2.5.0, I then installed the pls package. When trying to load this package I get: > library(pls) Attaching package: 'pls' The following object(s) are masked from package:stats : loadings > Searches show this to most often be related to attaching data, but I haven't got any data in here: this is the first command given after start-up and no historical files were loaded. Is there some dependency I am missing or something I need to load first, or do I need to unload some default library before I can use pls? Any solutions welcome. Regards, Ron.

There is no need to do anything else to use the pls package. Hope this is helpful, Dan Daniel J.

it's not really an error but it changes how you call things depending on what you need. If you want to use loadings in stats, you will have to use it by saying stats::loadings because it's masked and then you use loadings from pls by just saying loadings. Other than that, there's no problem I don't think. -----Original Message----- From: r-help-bounces at stat.math.ethz.ch [mailto:r-help-bounces at stat.math.ethz.ch] On Behalf Of Ron Crump Sent: Thursday, May 17, 2007 8:03 PM To: r-help at stat.math.ethz.ch Subject: [R] Problem loading library Hi, I have a fresh install of R 2.5.0, I then installed the pls package.
