Thanks, Tony.  This particular error message looks like 
a configuration error on my part.

I tried 1) and then 2), and then 2) and then 1), and still
got the "No ESS process is associated with this buffer now." 
message.

That is:  A. Opened and Xemacs window
          B. Opened a *.R file (C-x C-f foo.R)
          C. Started R (M-x R)
          D. C-c C-d (object to edit: foo)
          E. C-c C-l ("No ESS is associated with this buffer now." 

Then:     A. Opened an Xemacs window
          B. Started R (M-x R)
          C. Opened a *.R file (C-x C-f foo.r)
          D. C-c C-d (Process to dump from:  R; object to edit: foo)
          E. C-c C-l ("No ESS is associated with this buffer now."

But then I deleted all installations (Xemacs, ESS, R), re-installed,
and things worked.  So I probably carelessly installed something wrong
on that first attempt.
