That explains the warning message. > Who knows what crime I committed. Is that first or third degree murder. Well, it's just a warning-- so it shouldn't be a show-stopper. And from what I see the warning is only referring to the package help pages, which are available online. It looks like the functionality of the package should still work just fine if you don't want to bother with a reinstall. > I saw however that there is a far more recent version of RGoogleDocs (Last > Release: 0.4-0 (27 Oct 2009)).

But it should just be a matter of: install.packages( "RGoogleDocs", repos="http://www.omegahat.org/R", type="source" ) And that's it for Linux, Mac OS or other UNIX-based system. With Windows you will first have to install the toolset available at: http://www.murdoch-sutherland.com/Rtools/ Grab the "Rtools210" installer as you are using R 2.10.x. Install using the "Package Authoring" option and make sure you check any options that ask about modifying your PATH.
