Please see > attchament http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/file/n4498680/08.png > > Any suggestions ?Yes, see http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/forecast/index.html and find the current forecast version depends on R >= 2.14.0 while yours is older. Hence it cannot be offered for you. Hence upgrade to R-2.15.0 RC.

Many time the current repository will only be serving packages for the current version of R and you will need to locate an archived package if you are for some reason reluctant to upgrade.> > abind Combine multi-dimensional arrays > aplpack Another Plot PACKage: stem.leaf, bagplot, >snipped useless list. It doesn't matter much what packages you have installed as far as what appears on that pick-list, although I do see upon updating package::forecast that it also installed Rcpp_0.9.10.tgz' and RcppArmadillo_0.2.36.tgz'> XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX > > When I type install.packages(), select the mirror, the following > list of > packages appears but the package FORECAST is not listed....
