My guess is you are using an outdated R version for which the rather new
reshape2 package has not been compiled.

Just wanted to say that I've gone onto the CRAN website and downloaded it
directly from there.
So its no longer a problem for me.
But it may be one for other people, it is kinda weird I couldn't see it on
the list of packages on 4 mirrors!!!!!!
Thanks for your help though.

Hi Guys,
Thanks for your suggestions and sorry for the delay in replying, I've been
having one of those weeks.
I feel a little silly not trying the package name input as a character
string, I should have know that. However I have tried your suggestions and
neither worked. The code and error messages are at the bottom of this email
and U can see the reason would appear the "reshape2" package is not
available on the repositories I'm trying to access.
I then tried closing R, reopening it and looking in the following CRAN
mirrors:
Australia
UK(London)
Canada(BC)
USA(AZ)
Reshape 2 was in none of them, my choices were:
ResearchMethods
Reshape
ResistorArray
But no reshape2!!!!
Any ideas as to why I can't see reshape2?
Is it just me or are other people having this problem?
thanks

The first argument in download.packages should be of type character or
a vector of characters.
This worked for me:
install.packages('reshape2')
as did:
download.packages('reshape2', '~/Downloads/')
Cheers,
Jeff.

Hi everyone,
I’m trying to install reshape2.
But when I click on “install package” it’s not coming up!?!?! I’m getting
reshape, but no reshape2?
I’ve also tried download.packages(reshape2, destdir="c:\\")&
download.packages(Reshape2, destdir="c:\\")…but no luck!!!
Does anyone have any ideas what could be going on?
