Joshua, Thanks for the response. When you said at least version 3.4.0, I upgraded to 3.4.2 which I believe is the current version. Now, I attempted to install the package RQuantLib but it did not work. Here is what I got: > install.packages("RQuantLib") Installing package into ?C:/Users/rsher/Documents/R/win-library/3.4? (as ?lib? is unspecified) Warning message: package ?RQuantLib? is not available (for R version 3.4.2) Please help.

Hi Bob, I don't know what is the cause of your trouble but try this: 1. Download the zip of package. 2. And install it from local zip files. This you find on the Packages menu.

Dear Bob In fact the current release is 3.4.3 I can think of no reason why that should matter here but it might be worth trying to upgrade to it.

Sometimes that message appears when using a CRAN mirror that is not up-to-date or has communication problems. Might also try another mirror. -- Sent from my phone. Please excuse my brevity.

OA, Thanks for the response. I downloaded the file RQuantLib_0.4.4.tar.gz into a directory c:\r.zip on my Windows machine. I then ran the following command and I received the following output: > install.packages("RQuantLib", lib="/r.zip/") Warning message: package ?RQuantLib? is not available (for R version 3.4.3) I did not unpack the .gz file. Should I have? Please comment. Bob Sherry On 12/30/2017 2:24 AM, Orvalho Augusto wrote:> Hi Bob, > > I don't know what is the cause of your trouble but try this: > 1.
