Hi, I'm trying to install the whole package and I'm getting an error: Creating a new generic function for "[[<-" on element 2 of the search path Making a generic for special function "[[<-" Creating a new generic function for "[[" on element 2 of the search path Making a generic for special function "[[" Expanding the signature to include omitted arguments in definition: j = "missing" Creating a new generic function for "length" on element 2 of the search path Making a generic for special function "length" Creating a new generic function for "[" on element 2 of the search path Making a generic for special function "[" Error in conformMethod(signature, mnames, fnames) : Method has formal arguments not in generic function: file, append, quote, sep, eol, na, dec, row.names, col.names, qmethod Error in library(pkg, character.only = TRUE) : .First.lib failed The Biobase shows up on the library list but will only get this far when I try to open it. Thanks, Beth

Could tell us what is the version of R you are using (and eventually your operating system) ? Best, Laurent
