[BioC] [R] Call SAS from R

[Don MacQueen]

How does it not work? Do you get error messages? Nothing at all?
(it's difficult to help without more specific information, so this is 
a good time to suggest reading the posting guide: 
http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html)

What happens if you try to run that exact command outside of R? Does it work?
