Hello,
I have the following code example:
library(ReporteRs)
# Create a word document to contain R outputs
doc <- docx()
# Add a title to the document
doc <- addTitle(doc, "Simple Word document", level = 1)
# Add a paragraph of text into the Word document
cat("Output 1\n")
doc <- addParagraph(doc, "This.")
cat("Output 2\n")
# Write the Word document to a file
writeDoc(doc, file = "r-reporters-simple-word-document.docx")
When I run it, this is what I see:
source("writing_to_ms_word_new.R")
Output 1
Error in UseMethod("addParagraph") :
no applicable method for 'addParagraph' applied to an object of class
"docx"
Why? The library loads as it should. So why am I getting the above error?
Thanks in advance.

Sorry, no clue. If you don't get a satisfactory reply here, you should contact the maintainer, David Gohel <david.gohel at lysis-consultants.fr> .

I don't know what the error is, but your code snippet worked fine for me on Windows 10, R 3.4.0-patched. I noticed that rJava is a dependency. Don't know that the patch or Java updates I installed today could be a difference, but you might update packages, patched version, Java, etc and try again [since it worked here pasted right from your example].
