In that case you should (1) read the posting guide, (2) copy and paste the code you ran, and the precise error you got, into an email to the list that also includes (3) the results of running sessionInfo() during your R session (after loading the maptools package). Then perhaps we will have enough information to help diagnose the problem. PS: a little more poking around shows that, at least on my system, read.shape() is *not* part of the maptools package. help.search("read.shape") finds maptools::readShapeSpatial. library("sos"); findFn("read.shape") discovers that there is a read.shape() function in the spsurvey package.
