David,
The *new* WINUDF command to run R:BASE 6.5++ compliant DLLs will work in both R:BASE 6.5++ (1.866xRT03) for Windows as well as the R:BASE 6.5++ (1.866xRT03) for Windows Runtime!
Enjoy the benefits of staying CURRENT!
Very Best R:egards,
Razzak.

A second question - will the DLL Plugin approach to this issue work with latest build of RTime as well as R:Base 6.5++?
