I have; 1. Downloaded and installed (into /usr/local) mysql-standard-5.0.27- osx10.4-powerpc.dmg from http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/5.0.html . 2. Installed DBI version 0.1-11. 3. Run install.packages("RMySQL",,"http://r.research.att.com/";) as Simon Urbanek suggested (note the ; is removed). Now it works! Many thanks Simon, as always, for your help. Paul
