Hi,
I am new to Deducer. I would like to have guidance on the following issue, and I hope not to pose a question already asked.
When I try to import my dataset frm an Excel file, I got an error message saying that there is no package called "XLConnect". I guess that it is for this reason that the command "ReadWorksheet" is not found.
I tried to search for that package but I do not manage to find it. Is it not available any more?

I am using R 2.15.1, JGR 1.7-11, MAC SnowLeopard.

Thanks for any hint you will kindly provide,
Best Regards
Gianmarco

Due to some issues with the CRAN repository, only the "source"
distribution of that package is available. type:

install.packages("XLConnect", type = "source")

to install.

best,
Ian
