R help - Feb 2008 - R-Commander - pie charts menu blinded out

Hello,

I hope somebody can help me. I'm using the R-comander with library(Rmcdr).

Using the menu, I added an new data-matrix . After I wanted to draw a pie 
chart, but the problem is, that the pie chart menu is blinded out.

In the concerning variable column, there are no NA -Value (is.na) .

Anybody has a solution?

Rcmdr is a bit "holier than the prophet" when it comes to insisting
that
categorical variables are coded as factors, so my immediate guess is 
that the variable that you're charting is actually numeric. What you 
need to do is to use the menu Data/Manage variables.../Convert numeric...
