Hi Simon -- ?data indicates that the first file looked for is mydata.R, and then mydata.RData and so on. So add a file mydata.R to your data directory that contains R code to print a message and then loads the data. This hack is used in Bioconductor, e.g., the Biobase package
http://bioconductor.org/packages/2.0/bioc/html/Biobase.html to indicated that some data sets are deprecated.
