Dear R Users,
I am having trouble using R from within Excel. I've installed R(D) Com
Client and then try to open up the first sample sheet.
As Excel executes auto_open, it stops at function "ExcelVersionMajor"
and complaines that a certain type library is missing:
missing rcom 1.0 type library
It appears to be looking for this in the wrong directory:
C:\Progra~2\R\R-24~11\library\rcom\libs\rcom_srv.tlb
I am currently using R2.6.0 which is located in Program Files\R\R-2.6.0
The library it is looking for is in a subdirectory there in library\rcom\libs
When I link in that library through the References dialog box in VBA
and rerun Auto_Open, that version of Excel works fine.
However, if I close down that Excel and reopen, I get the same problem
an have to relink.
I looking at the Environment Variables under System in Control Panel
but there is nothing there which refers to either of the two
directories.
How can I fix this problem ?
My version of Excel is Excel 2002 SP3 and version of Windows is XP
Professional SP2.
Thanks,
Tolga
