Looks like you need to upgrade your R. Note that the affyio package was built under 2.3.0 and you are trying to load it into R 2.1.1, which is a year or two old. I'm not a windows user, but I'm venturing a guess that might be the issue. Sean

Thanks Sean. How can I upgrade R without having to install all the packages I have already installed?? -Sohail -----Original Message----- From: Sean Davis [mailto:sdavis2@mail.nih.gov] Sent: Wednesday, July 05, 2006 12:49 PM To: Khan, Sohail; Bioconductor Subject: Re: [BioC] affyio On 7/5/06 12:31 PM, "Khan, Sohail" <khan at="" cshl.edu=""> wrote: > Hi, > > I am getting the following error when loading the "affyio" package... > > library(affyio) > Error in load(dataFile, ns) : ReadItem: unknown type 241 > In addition: Warning message: > package 'affyio' was built under R version 2.3.0 ^^^^^ > Error: unable to load R code in package 'affyio' > Error: package/namespace load failed for 'affyio' >> sessionInfo() > R version 2.1.1, 2005-06-20, i386-pc-mingw32 ^^^^^ Hi, Sohail.

There have been threads in R-help that discuss this issue, so you might use RSiteSearch() to see if you can find one that you like. One possibility is to install the new version of R, copy your library directory over, and then run update.packages(). However, I don't see how this is any better (or faster) than simply installing the new version of R and then installing all the packages that you might want. This eliminates any problems you might encounter with incompatible versions of packages. Best, Jim -- James W. MacDonald, M.S.

If you use some of the command-line installation features, it isn't really that hard to install all the packages that you typically use in a few lines. My guess is that you don't actually use as many packages as you think you do, so I find that when I upgrade, I install a few very-often-used packages and then "install as I go" for the rest. Sean
