Hi, Jim:
Thanks for debugging for me!
I tried the following commands and got exactly what you have expected.
Also, I tried everything in the unix system, and got exactly the same
error message.

What happens if you do:
library(disdiv712aprobe)
data.frame(disdiv712aprobe)[1:10,]
You should get something like:
sequence x y Probe.Set.Name
Probe.Interrogation.Position Target.Strandedness

How about
library(disdiv712acdf)
get(ls(disdiv712acdf), disdiv712acdf)
You should get something like:

If
you are on MacOS or Windows, you may need to get some tools. If so,
you
will need to see the corresponding FAQ on the R-project website.
