[R] Sweave question

[Schweitzer, Markus]

Hm, have you installed it correctly?
latex usually returns error messages.
On windows latex is quite difficult to handle. I guess you have to
include a link to your sweave file:

\usepackage{C:/Programme/R-2.3.1/share/texmf/Sweave} 

and also provide the package there.
furthermore take care, that you use slashes instead of backslashes and
that there is no empty space between the words (meaning.. don t install
latex or R into "program files")

you should find all necessary information on how to set up latex to work
with sweave correctly by googling

I use WinEdt to generate PDF file from .tex file.
But when I open .tex file in WinEdt, I can't compile it?
I don't know why?
