Yes, I checked out his suggestion and my file looked okay.
You mentioned a possible problem with R . I had uninstalled it so I expect that it was not a problem but who knows. I'bm beginning to think I should consult the augurs. Sheep livers probably are just as comprehensible as DOS error messages. It also is an newer version than the one mentioned in your mail
I have never loaded RWinEdt so it should not be a problem. R comes with a base installation and one can then load all sorts of packages for it. RWinEdit is just one of them. I had never even heard of it before. I may have to look into it :) The current R-2.2.0 does not come with any .tex files that I can find.
Rd.sty currently resides in c:\Program Files\R\R-2.2.0\share\texmf. Exactly what this may mean I don't know. However it goes when I uninstall R which Idid yesterday. Of course it's back today. Takes all of 30 seconds to install-almost as fast as MikTeX.
As far as I can tell my tex list matches the screen shot that you included.
I am unsure from your last posts if you want me to try the -e compatibiltiy mode however I gave it a try and

Results of this is the same error message, as before, when trying an updatewhich comes down basically to
"initexmf: The file "latex.efmt" could not be found."
And as far as I can tell latex.efmt is not on my hard drive
BTW I have not been able to find a Lyx file in the Applications Data file under User after I have installed, created and saved a file in Lyx.
ARRGH!
