[R] Help with R

[Petr PIKAL]

Sometimes such message appears when you try to open .RData file in 
environment where packages used when the file was created are not 
installed. Than it is possible just to install necessary packages. Without 
whole story it is impossible to say what is real cause for that error.

Regards
Petr
