Hi Razzak, You are absolutely correct about the version. After upgrading the OS to Windows XP Professional a few months ago, I installed R:Base using the R:Base 2000 (RBW6.5) CD, but forgot to apply the downloaded upgrade to 6.5++. I also applied Patch 2. So I had been using version 6.5 thinking that it was 6.5++ all this time, until I hit the PROJECT TEMP brick wall a few days ago.
I just applied the 6.5 ++ upgrade and Patch 2. Everything is fine now. I really appreciate your help, Razzak. I would also like to thank list members for jumping in. Oversight could be costly.
