You mean like this: > R CMD BATCH filename.txt Error: syntax error, unexpected SYMBOL, expecting '\n' or ';' in "R CMD" > ??? If not and if you actually issued that line from the shell then there must be an error in your 'filename.txt' script. If so, this is an error in usage. You need to issue that command from a shell (aka 'MSDOS prompt') or use system(), shell(), etc. Chuck > > But I have also used a variety of other commands as well. > > > > What am I doing wrong? > > > > Lynn D.
