R help - Jan 2014 - Creating a R-package in R-Studio

Dear R-help community,

I am creating my first R-package in RStudio and wanted to add datasets 
to the package. I added an .RData file containing data (a data frame) in 
the 'data' folder of the package and could load the data as usual by 
typing in the console: data(xyz). Then I added a .RData file (a list) 
and could not load the data. Can anybody explain how I could make data 
available in my package that are saved as a list? Thanks a lot in 
anticipation.

Best regards

Thomas

RStudio likely has nothing to do with this, unless you used it somehow 
to create those .RData files.

The question is:  how were they created?  Unless we know that, we can't 
help.
