Duncan- Thanks for getting back and trying the code on your machine, I appreciate that. I'm not suspicious of \usepackage because inserting a type-o in the command will give me a specific error on not finding Sweave.sty. I did try backslashes, but that gave an error on not finding Sweave.sty.

Any ideas? Are you sure that's the problem? You have two closing parens after that file is listed; I think that succeeded, and the error happened afterwards. I'd be suspicious of the Sweave \usepackage line. Perhaps MiKTeX now requires backslashes instead of forward slashes, or maybe the quotes are causing problems. (Your \usepackage line worked fine here, but I'm using MikTeX 2.4. MikTeX has a habit of making incompatible changes.)
