Michael,

Read the two manuals that cover writing functions and preparing
*packages* of code, which come with R or get them here:

http://cran.r-project.org/manuals.html

"An Introduction to R" and "Writing R Extensions",

After reading and digesting, if you still have questions then post them
to the list. People here provide their time for free and it is not much
to expect posters to try to help themselves out first - especially as
the developers have gone to such great lengths to produce quality
documentation that explains all of this.
