(For the record) It probably was a corporate firewall problem. Apart from info on www.swissr.org (thanks for pointing this out) you can always download the file directly. The full listing is here: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2602516/swissrpkg/listing.html Direct links to the current (R2.10.x/1.5.1 pkg) version, either: - download the zipped dll: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2602516/swissrpkg/bin/win32/shlib/xlsReadWrite_1.5.1_dll.zip and manually replace xlsReadWrite.dll (in e.g. 'C:\Programme\R\R-2.10.1\library\xlsReadWrite\libs') or - download the full package: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2602516/swissrpkg/bin/win32/2.10/xlsReadWrite_1.5.1.zip and re-install. Note: 0.0.0-versions are development versions. They will be updated when there is something 'fixworthy' while a new official version is 'in wait mode'. Currently 0.0.0 fixes a bug with non-absolute file paths in 1.5.1.
