Thank you, Patricia, 
So basically, both of us did the same thing, but installRExcel() just 
worked in your case.  Because I was installing (D)COM on my company's 
computer ( I have temporary admin right), do you think it may be due to 
that Excel won't allow the change caused by calling installRExcel()?

RE: [R] need help with installRExcel()






Hi , 

What I did was similar, install R, R(D)COM server an RExcelInstaller 
package. Then just write > installRExcel() in the console. And it works. 
Something you should know is that there is a specific mailing list for 
RCOM topic in here:

Regards

patricia.
