Hi R users!

I am new to R. When I try to attach a simple dataset using the attach() command, I get the following message:

> attach(data1)

        The following object(s) are masked from package:base :

         write

Can someone tell me what this means? (`write' is the name of a variable in the dataset). And, do I need to do do something about this.

Thanks.
