Sam,

the unused parameter, Header = True, is the problem.  The parameter name is
header not Header (no caps).  And, the value for true should be TRUE (ALL caps).

Hope this is helpful,

Dear Daniel,

I was use this script to calculate replicateBE with R software, its 
worked. when i use the same script with similar data (xlsx) i got error 
messages like below, do you have any suggest? thanks anyway
my script:
library(replicateBE)
path.in  <- "Z:/Personil Omega"
path.out <-  path.in
method.A(path.in=path.in, path.out=path.out, file="lans",
          set="01", ext="xlsx", header=1, ola=TRUE)
method.A(path.in=path.in, path.out=path.out, file="lans",
     set="02", ext="xlsx", header=1)
ABE(path.in=path.in, path.out=path.out, file="lans",
     set="01", ext="xlsx", header=1)

ABE(path.in=path.in, path.out=path.out, file="lans",
     set="02", ext="xlsx", header=1)

result:
 > library(replicateBE)
 > path.in  <- "Z:/Personil Omega"
 > path.out <- path.in
 > method.A(path.in=path.in, path.out=path.out, file="lans",
+          set="01", ext="xlsx", header=1, ola=TRUE)
Error in method.A(path.in = path.in, path.out = path.out, file =
"lans",
  :
   unused argument (header = 1)
 > method.A(path.in=path.in, path.out=path.out, file="lans",
+     set="02", ext="xlsx", header=1)
Error in method.A(path.in = path.in, path.out = path.out, file =
"lans",
  :
   unused argument (header = 1)
 > ABE(path.in=path.in, path.out=path.out, file="lans",
+     set="01", ext="xlsx", header=1)
Error in ABE(path.in = path.in, path.out = path.out, file = "lans",  :
   unused argument (header = 1)
 > ABE(path.in=path.in, path.out=path.out, file="lans",
+     set="02", ext="xlsx", header=1)
Error in ABE(path.in = path.in, path.out = path.out, file = "lans",  :
   unused argument (header = 1)



Warm Regards,
