Hi Mick, did you get the package file from the website www.bioconductor.org? There, e.g. on the page "The Bioconductor Project Release Package Index", you could have read "Requires R 1.7.1 or later" in the first line of that page. Quite a lot has changed between R 1.6 and 1.7, so this is not an idle requirement. Best regards Wolfgang
