Thank you all for the reply.

One example of my question is as follows.

Suppose X1, ..., X10 has multivariate normal distribution
and X(1), ..., X(10) are the corresponding order statistics.

My question is that whether there is a R function that would
help compute the c which satisfies
P(X(4) <c)=beta.
Here beta is a known constant between 0 and 1.

Thank you.
