[R] 'save' saved object names instead of objects

Hello,
I created an array to hold the results of a series of simulations I'm
running:
d.eta <- array(0,dim=c(3,3,200))
<simulation goes here and populates the array but it's not important>
Then I tried to save the results using this:
save(d.eta,file="D:/Simulation Results/sim 9-23-11 deta")
When I later tried to reload them using this:
d.eta <- load(file="D:/Simulation Results/sim 9-23-11 deta")
I got the following:
> class(d.eta)
[1] "character"
> d.eta
[1] "d.eta"
Why didn't it load the original object that I tried to save (the array)? Is
the problem with how I'm saving or how I'm loading? Any explanation would
be greatly appreciated.
And to head off this question, I did check after the simulation, before
saving, and the d.eta object is an array of numbers.
Thanks,
Mitch
