Dear there:
I'm trying to install the bioconductor packages into R in Windows.
1. I downloaded the packages and the getBioC.R into the libary folder
of R.
2. Open getBioC.R.
3. getBioC(lib="exprs")
The error message is:
Error in testRversion(descfile) : This package has not been installed
properly
See the Note in ?library
Could you please help me on solving this? Thanks.

I'm betting that there's more that went on between the call to getBioC
and
the error. Can you send that as well?
Thanks

that's inappropriate. don't put things manually
into the library folder until you have more expertise.

if i were you i would delete all changes to R or reinstall it.
then
1) save the getBioC.R to the C drive
2) start R
3) source("C:\\getBioC.R")
4) getBioC("exprs")

Alternatively you could just run
source("http://www.bioconductor.org/getBioC.R"). This is generally
what
I tell new folks to do, though you still need to run getBioC("exprs")
after that.
