please help me.

since 2 days i have tried desperately to find desperately a solution for the following problem:

i have an array of 3 different vectors like:

> clustertransformationstabelle[,15:17]
          x1            x2                x3
1  0.6270023 0.2464946 0.5074781
2  0.5629291 0.1783861 0.4398626
3  0.6773455 0.3107641 0.5637289
4  0.0000000 0.0000000 0.0000000

i want to calculate a corresponding result-vector with a formula resp function eg:

> result <- - 1.60638946783994e-05 + 384.649339378693 * x1 - 168.920548209815 * x2 - 693.51261768584 * x3 + 479.305764753298 * x1 * x3

after formating the result would look like
> dim(result) <- c(4,1)
> result
               [,1]
 [1,]  1.057852e-01
 [2,]  2.854227e-02
 [3,]  1.107150e-01
 [4,] -1.606389e-05

fine....
but due to mass routines, i have to create the result-function automatically, 
unfortunately it can only be generated via a paste-command as a character-string in quotes like:

functionterm <- "- 1.60638946783994e-05 + 384.649339378693 * x1 - 168.920548209815 * x2 - 693.51261768584 * x3 + 479.305764753298 * x1 * x3"

how on earth can i use that automatically generated functionterm (see line above), 
unfortunately inclusive their quotes, in order to get a correct fomated function?

if i try to convert it into a function like:
> result <- as.function(alist(x1=,x2=,x3=, functionterm))

and give some example input-data eg.:
> result(0.6270023, 0.2464946, 0.5074781)

i always get that stupid functionterm in quotes returned
[1] "- 1.60638946783994e-05 + 384.649339378693 * x1 - 168.920548209815 * x2 - 693.51261768584 * x3 + 479.305764753298 * x1 * x3"

instead of the correct values (like 1.057852e-01, see result-array[1,1] some lines above)
please help me, i am blocked since 2 days already by that stupid problem
