Hi everybody, I started to receive a weird message in R that I have never seen before...also I haven't found anything on google or on this forum about it. Whenever I use the command source(...) to point to one of my scripts, I get the following message: Error in source("myfunctions.R") : myfunctions.R:884:9: unexpected symbol 883: 884: cond ^ I am using the same commands as I did in the past and it was working...I started to receive this error (not sure if it has to do with it or not) after trying to create a batch file to run one of my .R scripts with double-click. That batch file worked...but as soon as I use the source() command it does not work any more. Any help is appreciated!

A common way to generate that error is to fail to close parentheses, e.g. ( a cond gives a similar one. Duncan Murdoch
