Folks, I have been using the cf function from the "financial" package for a few years now. Upon updating my version of R to ... I found that the package no longer exists in the main collection of R packages. Has this package been renamed or merged with another package? If the functionality is no longer available what is the best way to integrate the archived version of the package into my current setup? Thanks for your time, KW -- [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Dr. R, Thanks for your help. I had already gotten the archive package and sourced the code. I was just wondering if there was a *best* way to make it a kind of "local" package. I hope this message is in plain text. I thought I changed my settings for this awhile ago. If there is still a problem please let me know. Also I read the digests daily. What is the best way to reply to a message in the digest?
