R help - Sep 2007 - Installing add-on packages

Admittedly, I don't have much experience with R.  I have dowloaded and
installed some add-on packages (leaps, for one).  When I try to run the
leaps function I get the following error:

Error: could not find function "leaps"

Any idea on what the problem could be?  Thanks,

Yes, supposingly you did not load the "add-on" with the library
command (e.g.
library(leaps) ) - I would recommend in that case that you have a look at an 
introductionary texts like those here:
