Well, the actual error message has nothing to do with the xlsx or rJava
packages-- it's complaining about something missing from the namespace of
the utils package.  Given the following:

  * utils is a base package distributed bundled with R

  * There are warnings that the packages you are trying to load were built
under a different version of R

  * I am using version 2.10.1 and utils::.DollarNames is present and
exported


I would guess that you probably need to upgrade your version of R to 2.10.1
in order to use these packages.


Hope this helps!
