Thanks for your prompt response. Apparently my problem is with my R or 
Windows setup. When I followed the advice in your return email, here's 
the result. I've been an R user for a number of years and have 
installed/uninstalled several versions, plus I've installed MinGW, 
RTools, gcc/gfortran, and a number of R-related packages. I must have 
messed something up. Is there a pointer to the proper configuration? 
Today I reinstalled RInside and Rcpp before trying the make below.  
Thanks, and I'll be sure to post properly in the future. I didn't start 
at RInside, I started with 'how can I call R from a c program.

Regards

David Stevens
