R help - Jun 2011 - Package warnings

Thanks to all your help I've just finished my first package and I have a
couple of questions



  I want to submit to CRAN but I have  1 warning

 " checking for code/documentation mismatches ... WARNING
Data sets with usage in documentation object 'FILE.PARAMETERS' but not
in
code:
  FILE.PARAMETERS"

I actually have a few instances with the same issue. I have a handful of
data objects, things like URLs
and some file parameters ( like column widths etc). These are declared in an
R file and then loaded
(lazyData no)

There are help files for all these objects, and some of them get used in the
code as defaults for when
functions are called
 foo <- function( x, y=FILE.PARAMETERS)

So why do I get this warning? is it one I have to fix? and should I be
asking this on the dev list?

Thanks again for all your help, hope this is right place to ask.

Yes, you should fix almost all warnings, and yes, questions like this 
belong on the R-devel list.

When you ask there, it would be helpful to be very specific:  show us 
the start of the Rd file that is being complained about (the \usage and 
\docType sections are of particular interest), and give us the exact 
details about how the data object is being created.
