Dear Lowie, To use a function in R that you have saved in a file, you need to source it in first (see ?source). Try this,
source(file="pathtoyourfile/P_Value.R") #or whatever your file is named exactly Once you do that, you should be able to use your function. If you always want it to load at startup, you can modify your Rprofile, I believe.
