I believe I have the right settings now (SET dump follows), and both 1.9.0 and 1.8.1 still fail to start as before. I have tried also setting HOMEPATH=\ and HOMEPATH=\Documents and Settings\melbourne. Let me know if I can gather any other useful info. Brett C:\WINDOWS\system32set

Re: [R] Fatal Error: INVALID HOMEDRIVE

I also set HOMEPATH in my System control panel as you suggested, then rebooted ... the same error occurs. Windows XP appears to be over-riding the setting because no HOMEPATH appears in the environment even when it's set in the control panel thus. But R starts fine with C:\Program

Re: [R] Rgui front-end has encountered a problem and needs to close

Hi Murray, This looks like the same problem I'm having. Did you recently install Windows XP critical updates? That appears to have caused the problem on my machine. Brett Brett Melbourne, Postdoctoral Fellow Biological Invasions IGERT www.cpb.ucdavis.edu/bioinv Center for Population Biology

Re: [R] Rgui front-end has encountered a problem and needs to close

I get the same message and error signature on failing to start 1.8.1. If I continue through to debug in VC++6, I get the message Unhandled exception in Rgui.exe (MSVRCT.DLL): 0xC005: Access Violation. cheers Brett - Original Message - From: Murray Jorgensen [EMAIL PROTECTED] To:

Re: [R] Error with 1.9.0 - Invalid HOMEDRIVE

for the inconvenience. This appears to have occured to me after installing the latest Microsoft Windows critical updates. I have reinstalled R1.8.1 and R1.9.0 to no avail. None of the other programs on my computer are affected, only R. Is anybody else experiencing this? Brett Brett Melbourne

Re: [R] insert eps into microsft word

Your problem may also be that you can't get the figure to print from Word? To get Word to print anything other than a blank box for the eps, you will need to install and use a postscript printer driver for your printer. cheers Brett Brett Melbourne, Postdoctoral Fellow Biological Invasions
